Adelaide | Clinical Cases in Dermatology presented by Dr Ivan Bristow

This interactive workshop, centred around real-world clinical cases, offers a unique opportunity for podiatrists to sharpen their diagnostic acumen (including dermoscopy) and therapeutic strategies for common and complex dermatological presentations in the lower limb. Through a series of engaging case discussions, delegates will gain practical, applicable knowledge to enhance patient outcomes and their own clinical confidence.
This workshop will provide the following benefits for clinicians, including:
- Improved Diagnostic Accuracy: Develop a more nuanced understanding of the subtle and overlapping presentations of various foot and ankle dermatoses, leading to more precise and timely diagnoses with the aid of the dermatoscope.
- Enhanced Patient Management: Gain evidence-based insights into the latest treatment modalities and management plans for a range of conditions, from inflammatory dermatoses to infections and neoplastic lesions.
- Increased Clinical Confidence: Bolster your confidence in managing complex cases and recognising when onward referral to specialist services is appropriate.
- Interactive Learning Environment: Engage in discussion, sharing experiences and best practices in a supportive and interactive setting.
- Direct Application to Practice: The case-based format ensures that the knowledge and skills acquired are directly translatable to the clinical setting, improving the quality of patient care provided.
Learning Objectives:
- Upon completion participants will be able to:
- Identify and differentiate between a wide range of inflammatory, infectious, and neoplastic skin conditions of the foot and ankle, including but not limited to:

- Psoriasis (Plaque and Pustular)
- Plantar Warts (Verrucae)
