  • Title: Non melanoma skin cancer review.
    Author: Cleavenger J, Johnson SM.
    Journal: J Ark Med Soc; 2014 Apr; 110(11):230-4. PubMed ID: 24783362.
    Abstract:
    The diagnosis of skin cancer is often distressing for the individual patient even though 20% of the population may develop a skin cancer during their life. As with most conditions, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Employing sun smart behaviors in childhood that last into adulthood is a good place to start. Regularly scheduled full body skin exams by a health care provider in addition to monthly self skin check exams allow for early detection.
