Integrating Skin Cancer-Related Technologies into Clinical Practice

Richard R Winkelmann et al. Dermatol Clin. 2017 Oct.

Abstract

Early diagnosis and treatment of melanoma improve survival. New technologies are emerging that may augment the diagnosis, assessment, and management of melanoma but penetrance into everyday practice is low. In the current health care climate, greater emphasis will be placed on the incorporation of technology for clinically suspicious pigmented lesions to facilitate better, more cost-effective management.
