Abstract
Role for Osteopaths?
Osteopaths are Primary Practitioners
Osteopaths often see and examine patients in a state of undress
As health care providers, there is a likelihood that osteopaths can be trained to a good level of skill in melanoma screening
Early Detection Advisory Group (2006) recommends a programme to “increase knowledge about skin cancer, particularly melanoma, among other relevant health workers”
