Training Primary Care Practitioners In Dermoscopy Diagnostic Algorithms Enhances Diagnostic Accuracy and Triage of Suspected Skin Cancer: Scoping Review Evidence

This review demonstrates the value of training PCPs in dermoscopic diagnostic algorithms through short courses to improve triage of suspicious lesions. However, it is still necessary to define a territorial organization, a precise working framework and limits for PCPs who take on this role.
