As patients increasingly seek non-invasive solutions to medical problems, use of tools like dermoscopy has become standard amongst DermPAs and dermatologists. In an interview with Dermcast.live host Hope Cook, PA-C, dermoscopy expert Orit Markowitz, MD, discusses benefits of the tool particularly related to treatment and prevention of skin cancer. Dr. Markowitz, of Markowitz Medical, also touches on the “color wheel” approach to solving difficult diagnostic challenges, particularly when it comes to distinguishing between malignant and benign conditions, and thus expediting effective treatments.
