Melanomas (Part 1) - Think you know melanomas? Think again!
“Over half of all our referrals to dermatology are for suspected skin cancer. But this is the alarming thing, only 6% of those referrals turn out to be either a melanoma or a squamous cell carcinoma...” Dr George Moncrieff.
So, as primary care physicians, how can we help to reduce the percentage of benign melanoma referrals?
You can start by listening to this podcast where your hosts Dr George Moncrieff and Dr Roger Henderson discuss:
The current incidence statistics for malignant melanomas and how these have changed over the past 5 decades
Who is actually at risk? Looking at genetic make-up, age, gender, skin colour, hair colour and family history
External risk factors, including ultraviolet light, explaining the difference between UVA and UVB
Our approach to diagnosis, questioning if ABCDE is dangerously flawed.
“Everyone expects us to get this one right”, (Dr Moncrieff), so this podcast episode is not one to be missed!
