Automated Non-invasive Diagnosis of Melanoma Skin Cancer using Dermo-scopic Images

Non-melanoma skin cancer diagnosis with a convolutional neural network

Background: The most common types of non-melanoma skin cancer are basal cell carcinoma (BCC), and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). AKIEC -Actinic keratoses (Solar keratoses) and intraepithelial carcinoma (Bowen’s disease)- are common non-invasive precursors of SCC, which may progress to invasive SCC, if left untreated. Due to the importance of early detection in cancer treatment, this study aimed...

Non-invasive Melanoma Diagnosis using Multispectral Imaging

The early analysis of pigmented skin lesions is important for clinicians in order to recognize malignant melanoma. However, it is difficult to differentiate it from benign skin lesions due to their similarity based on their appearance. Since melanoma has a tendency to grow inside the skin and the depth of penetration of light into the skin is wavelength dependent, a multispectral imaging acquis...

Photodynamic Therapy and Fluorescence Diagnosis of Non- Melanoma Skin Cancer

Occupational non-melanoma skin cancer.

Non-melanoma skin cancer is historically known to be associated with certain professions. Reporting is mandatory in Denmark when occupational exposure is suspected. In a retrospective register-based study of all cases of suspected occupational non-melanoma skin cancer reported to the Directorate of National Labour Inspection and the National Board of Industrial Injuries in Denmark in the period...

Histopathological evaluation of non-melanoma skin cancer

BACKGROUND Non-melanoma skin cancers (NMSCs) are the most frequently seen cancers worldwide. METHODS The medical records of patients diagnosed with basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in Hatay Antakya pathology laboratory between January 2010 and September 2012 were retrospectively included in the study. Tumors were categorized according to age, gender, anatomical loc...
