This course considers the advances in artificial intelligence (AI) in Dermoscopy. AI is a powerful tool that can assist with diagnosis of skin tumours and diseases. Content includes how AI can be incorporated into medical practice and how human intelligence (HI) and AI can be used in Dermoscopy to influence and inform the daily work of HI. The history of AI is included and various research results are discussed and analysed. Interesting study comparisons of AI and HI on correct diagnosis of dermoscopic images are included and the analysis of clinical dermoscopic images are rated with varying success depending on particular lesions. Management decisions for dermoscopic diagnosis and legal implications are mentioned. The future development if AI and HI suggests a combination of human intelligence and artificial intelligence will lead to the optimisation of patient outcomes.

This course introduces the theory of Radiofrequency and Ultrasound including the physics of various wave forms. Information regarding these modalities for non-invasive skin tightening and how it can be used to promote skin health and rejuvenation are described in detail. The course explores radiofrequency including the electromagnietic spectrum and the wavelength absorption spectrum. Monopolar, bipolar, unipolar and multipolar radiofrequency information is presented. The suitability and application of radiofrequency in aesthetic medicine is outlined together with complications and challenges. The course then explores Ultrasound in depth. Properties, intensity and categories of sound waves are described before moving in the application of ultrasound in aesthetic medicine. The reasons when ultrasound is an appropriate treatment option are listed. The four categories of mechanism of action effect are thermal, mechanical, cavitation and biological and each of these are discussed in detail. Examples of ultrasound equipment and common treatment areas are included before information on complications and challenges are listed.

This course describes two modalities for non-surgical body contouring in detail – cryolipolysis and lipolysis. Cryolopolysis destroys fat cells and involves cooling target tissue for a specified time at a specified temperature. The lipolysis process uses lasers to break cells apart and reduces the volume of fatty tissue. The basic concepts and mechanism of action are explained. Contraindications, complications, side effects and patient assessment and procedure protocol are outlined. The use of deoxycholic acid versus cryolipolysis is discussed. Other modalities included in this course are heat generating devices, radiofrequency and high intensity microfocused ultrasound.
