A random test that a dermatologist might do (4,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

spot check

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a dermatologist might do' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'a random test' is the wordplay.
'a random' becomes 'spot' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'test' becomes 'check' (synonyms).
'spot'+'check'='SPOT-CHECK'

'that' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for spot check that I've seen before include "Security measure" , "Random test, made without warning" , "Sudden unannounced examination" , "Random or surprise examination" , "From impromptu inspection" .)
