The role of pathology in the diagnosis and treatment of melanoma is pivotal to optimal patient care. With so many disciplines relying on the pathologist for accurate diagnoses and critical pathological information, we decided to reach out to our clinical melanoma community to ask them for their critical pathology questions.

The clinical information needed to aid diagnosis
The role of artificial intelligence and computing in pathology
Overdiagnosis of melanoma
The problem of partial biopsies
Diagnosing borderline lesions
What is a melanocytoma and how should it be managed
What is an irritated naevus
Dysplastic naevi and appropriate management
This podcast is suitable for GPs, Dermatologists, Surgeons, Oncologists, Pathologists and other healthcare professionals.
