Course description

The focus is on non-surgical management of skin cancer. Students will gain knowledge of both physical therapies (eg. cryotherapy, cautery, radiotherapy) as well as pharmacological therapies (eg. 5-fluorouracil, Imiquimod, diclofenac), as well as an understanding of when to consider these modalities.
