The Virtual Dermatoscope is a fun and interactive app for medical practitioners with some knowledge of dermoscopy.
There is a selection of lesions to practise on. Choose a clinical photo, and tap to examine it with the Virtual Dermatoscope. (Zoom and pan for a close up view). The first quiz will test your descriptive skills. You will then see an annotated version of the image followed by a diagnosis quiz and feedback.
The original Virtual Dermatoscope was designed as part of Cardiff Universitys Introduction to Dermoscopy course. This is a comprehensive 12-week online course, run by leading international experts in the field.

“Love the virtual dermatoscope, lots of useful information and practice at looking at signs” – Dr Seema Nagpaul, GP.
“The virtual dermatoscope is a novel, neat, fun and addictive educational tool. A must for anyone keen to practise and improve their dermoscopic skills.” – Dr Jackie Orledge, GP.
