'You Dermoscopy': Learning dermoscopy via a game (Part 2)

By Skin Cancer Institute |March 01, 2022

In the second part of a two-part series, Professor Giuseppe Argenziano takes us through an application he developed with colleagues, called You Dermoscopy Training - an interactive dermoscopy game. In this video, he focuses on some real patient cases evaluated in the app.

In the short video, Prof Argenziano explains how the game teaches vital dermoscopy skills through a series of 7,000 real patient cases submitted by medical practitioners all over the world.

Prof Argenziano takes us through some of the cases, focusing on characteristics that support certain diagnoses.

You Dermoscopy Training provides an engaging and interactive platform for practising lesion diagnosis with real-life patient case studies and immediate feedback. The app is available in the language to which your phone is set, including English.
