skin cancer has been the most usual and illustrates 50% of all new cancers detected each year. if they detected at an early stage, treatment can become simple and economically. accurate skin lesion segmentation is important in automated early skin cancer detection and diagnosis systems. the aim of this study is to provide an effective approach to detect the skin lesion border on a purposed imag...

An educational programme would teach these groups how to screen for skin cancers by identifying risky features such as irregular edged moles, dark pigmentation etc. Each group could be assessed by using either pictures of skin cancers versus non-malignant skin conditions to determine whether non-medical personnel and non-health professionals could accurately screen for skin cancers. People who ...

background: is the third cause of death. the present study aimed at providing the incidence rates (crude and agestandardized)of different types of cancers in sistan and baluchestan province (southeastern of iran).cancer is the second leading cause of death in developing countries. in iran, cancermethodsregistry center of health heputy for sistan and baluchestan province. common cancers weredefi...

The incidence of overall cancer has increased over time. The incidence of top-ranking cancers has changed in the 1990s and the 2000s. However, few studies have evaluated the trends in metastatic skin cancers during this period. We evaluated the recent trends in incidence, peak age and location of metastatic skin cancers from 1991 to 2010. This 20-yr survey was divided into two decades to determ...

Background and Objectives: Evidence indicate relationships between the sunlight exposure, vitamin D status and non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) risk. Vitamin D receptor (VDR) polymorphisms have been linked to metabolic changes in insulin resistance and various cancers. The purpose of this study is to investigate relationships between the sunlight exposure and the NMSC risk. Furthermore, relation...

Skin cancer is the growth of uncontrolled abnormal skin cells. There are two main types of skin cancers such as Melanoma and Non-Melanoma. The main objective of this research work is to focus on Non-Melanoma skin cancers and classify the types of it.The classification of non melanoma skin cancers is automated using machine learning approach and the model is built to predict the type of disease ...

The authors describe the incidence of new primary cancers among 4,639 cases of squamous cell skin cancer (SCC) diagnosed between 1974 and 1994 in the cancer registries of the Swiss cantons of Vaud and Neuchâtel (total person-years at risk = 23,152). Overall, 729 metachronous cancers were observed versus 527.6 expected, corresponding to a standardized incidence ratio (SIR) of 1.4 (95% confidence...

BACKGROUND The risk of skin cancer is highly increased in kidney-transplant recipients (KTR), but the risk of subsequent skin cancers is less well studied. The aim of this study was to estimate the cumulative incidence of subsequent squamous- and basal-cell carcinomas (BCCs) and to analyze potential risk factors. METHODS All histologically confirmed skin cancers between 1966 and 2006 were inc...

Ultraviolet radiation is the major cause of skin cancer, but promotes vitamin D synthesis, and vitamin D has been inversely related to the risk of several common cancers including prostate, breast and colorectum. We therefore computed the incidence of prostate, breast and colorectal cancer following skin cancer using the datasets of the Swiss cancer Registries of Vaud and Neuchâtel. Between 197...

Background: skin cancer is one of the most frequent cancers worldwide. There has been a significant increase in incidence over recent years.
