As we gear up for the Skin Cancer Symposium in Auckland, New Zealand, from July 27-28, the DermEngine team is excited to attend! We’re looking forward to engaging with leading experts in skin cancer research and clinical practice. Conferences like these help us stay abreast of developments in dermatoscopy and the changes we need to make for the continued support of our medical professionals.

The Skin Cancer Symposiums

The Skin Cancer Symposium hosts sessions led by world-class experts such as Professor Cliff Rosendahl and Professor Amanda Oakley, who will cover advanced dermatoscopy techniques and diagnostic algorithms. Attendees will receive practical training on a variety of skills, including basic suturing, punch biopsies, shave excisions, and more advanced surgical techniques. The Skin Cancer Symposium offers fully accredited, highly practical courses, designed to be accessible and easy to understand with interactive sessions, real-life examples, and quizzes to reinforce the learning. 

Dermoscopy training

The symposium is a series of educational sessions focused on the diagnosis and treatment of skin cancer. Topics such as dermatoscopy are covered, which is an invaluable tool for assessing skin lesions. Identifying whether a condition is benign or malignant requires significant expertise in recognizing subtle patterns and features that are often difficult to detect. The Skin Cancer Symposium aims to equip attendees with the skills and confidence to accurately determine the nature of skin lesions. It supports the next generation of medical professionals, including doctors in training, students, and experienced clinicians looking to refine their skills. By combining effective training with reliable technology, it becomes key to achieving optimal results.

Complimentary MoleScope II for participants

The Skin Cancer Symposium is partnering with us, MetaOptima, to provide the reliable technology to support the continued education of medical professionals. A complimentary mobile dermatoscopes will be given to those enrolled in select dermatoscopy courses. Our MoleScope II device is the most portable, affordable, easy-to-use skin check solution that does not compromise on the high-quality imaging expected in most dermatoscopes.
