Dermoscopy for melanoma detection: A systematic review

Title:	Dermoscopy for melanoma detection and triage in primary care: A systematic review
Project Description:	This review is focussed on whether dermoscopy, with suitable formal training programmes, can be used accurately and effectively within NHS primary care. It looks at both hand-held and digital dermoscopy devices, with the potential to include novel teledermoscopy approaches when they mature. The review aims to identify evidence which maps onto the CanTest research framework, including test accuracy, utility, cost-effectiveness and acceptability to patients and GPs
