Practice Essentials for Skin Cancer Screening and Diagnosis

May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month, but there's never a wrong time for your patients to get screened for conditions such as melanoma, carcinoma, and actinic keratosis.

Do your patients know the importance of skin cancer screening? It's not just for beachcombers and sun worshippers—let your patients know that when it comes to skin cancer, everyone is at risk.

Exams and early detection are vital in the fight against skin cancer. Some important facts to remember, according to the Skin Cancer Foundation:

  • Skin cancer is the most common cancer in the United States and worldwide.
  • More than 9,500 people in the U.S. are diagnosed with skin cancer every day.
  • 1 in 5 Americans will develop skin cancer by the age of 70.
  • More than 2 people die of skin cancer in the U.S. every hour.
  • Having 5 or more sunburns doubles your risk for melanoma.
  • When detected early, the 5-year survival rate for melanoma is 99 percent.

Whether you're a dermatologist for whom screening is your specialty, or a primary care physician who offers screening as part of a routine exam, you can rely on Henry Schein for the practice essentials needed to screen and diagnose your patients for skin cancers and precancers.

If you are performing Mohs procedures in your practice, you can rely on Henry Schein for your product needs throughout the surgical process.
