    Center for Melanoma Research and Treatment

    Skin cancer is the most common of all cancers. Most skin cancers are basal cell or squamous cell cancers. These non-melanoma skin cancers do not spread easily, are less threatening and are seldom fatal. Melanoma accounts for about 5% of all diagnosed skin cancers and is far more serious. If detected early, melanoma can almost always be cured, but when melanoma is not detected early it is much more likely to spread and can be fatal.

    The best defense against developing skin cancer of any type is prevention and early detection. Find out if you are at risk for developing skin cancer.
