Thanks to this postgraduate diploma you will improve your knowledge in advanced skin biology for a more efficient diagnosis of cancerous pathologies"

Recent studies have shown that patients with Gardner Syndrome have a higher probability of developing Basal Cell Carcinoma, Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Malignant Melanoma compared to the general population. This is due to the presence of inherited genetic mutations that affect cell growth regulation and DNA repair. For this reason, it is important for the clinical specialists to be constantly informed of the latest scientific evidence that allows them to be up to date with the latest diagnostic techniques, evaluation, treatment and prevention of this pathology and other similar diseases.

In this sense, TECH has designed this program that allows the professional to experience an adequate education about the risk factors of Skin Cancer. This way, the clinical specialist will deepen in hereditary diseases with cutaneous manifestations, oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma, Kaposi's sarcoma and other cutaneous neoplasms. Likewise, they will expand their knowledge of diagnostic tests in skin cancer, dermoscopy and molecular biology techniques.

Also, this postgraduate diploma provides versatility, which will allow the physician to access its content at any time and location. In addition, this curriculum incorporates in its teaching methodology the Relearning system, which facilitates the consolidation of the most important concepts in a faster way. All this, accompanied by a variety of pedagogical resources such as real case studies and video summaries stored inb a virtual library with unlimited access from any device connected to the network.

You will identify and evaluate the most recurrent Risk Factors for Skin Cancer such as skin photo-types and chemical exposure"

This postgraduate diploma in Risk Factors for Skin Cancer contains the most complete and up-to-date scientific program on the market. The most important features include:

• The development of case studies presented by experts in Dermatology, Oncology and Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
• The graphic, schematic, and practical contents with which they are created, provide scientific and practical information on the disciplines that are essential for professional practice
• Practical exercises where the self-assessment process can be carried out to improve learning
• Its special emphasis on innovative methodologies
• Theoretical lessons, questions to the expert, debate forums on controversial topics, and individual reflection assignments
• Content that is accessible from any fixed or portable device with an Internet connection 

An academic option that will allow you to stay ahead of advances in nucleic acid hybridization techniques"

The program's teaching staff includes professionals from the sector who contribute their work experience to this program, in addition to renowned specialists from leading societies and prestigious universities.

Its multimedia content, developed with the latest educational technology, will provide the professional with situated and contextual learning, i.e., a simulated environment that will provide an immersive education programmed to learn in real situations.

The design of this program focuses on Problem-Based Learning, by means of which the professional must try to solve the different professional practice situations that are presented throughout the academic course. For this purpose, the student will be assisted by an innovative interactive video system created by renowned experts.

With this 100% online program you will address the different types of Skin Cancer from Melanoma to unrelated diseases"

You will be up to date on the clinical signs that could make the difference in the early diagnosis of skin cancer"

The purpose of this postgraduate diploma is to offer the healthcare professional an actualization of their knowledge about the Risk Factors that can cause Skin Cancer. This way, you will be able to identify early possible signs of skin cancer and provide a timely diagnosis. To meet this goal, TECH has created this degree that provides the medical professional with the possibility of accessing the most current information with the utmost scientific rigor.

You will implement in your daily practice the most advanced techniques such as Dermatoscopy and Biopsies to confirm your diagnoses in Skin Cancer"
