Skin cancer is of great importance to doctors, both generalists and specialists, because it is becoming alarmingly common yet is preventable and treatable. In the USA there are about 7,500 deaths from melanoma each year and about 1,800 in the UK - more than double the figures of 20 years ago.

The key to successful treatment (other than education and prevention) is early diagnosis.
Fast Facts: Skin Cancer has been written by three international experts to equip healthcare professionals with the necessary diagnostic skills and treatment options to save lives.
