Melanoma in situ: Diagnosis, management and patient wellbeing

Melanoma Institute Australia (MIA) invites you to join us for an engaging educational webinar designed for all Skin Cancer GPs, General GPs and Nurses who have an interest in skin cancer.

Melanoma in situ (MIS) can be challenging to differentiate from benign skin lesions, and early detection is the key to successful treatment.

  • The dermatology nursing role for topical treatments for lentigo maligna (CNS Denise Wilson)
  • Communicating the diagnosis to the patient and identifying when to offer support (Psychologist Claire Gore)

Q&A will be available at the conclusion of the webinar.

Where: Online via Zoom
Cost: Free
