Current recommendations by the United States Preventive Services Task Force do not support screening for skin cancer. Melanoma is unique among cancers because detection is through visual inspection. Development of technologies that aid visual inspection have supported screening strategies in high-risk populations such as older fair skinned males with personal or family history of melanoma. Clearly delineating these populations and appropriate utilization of these newer technologies will be imperative in future screening paradigms.
目前，美国预防服务工作组的建议不支持皮肤癌筛查。黑色素瘤是癌症中独一无二的，因为它是通过肉眼检查来发现的。开发有助于视觉检查的技术支持了高危人群（如皮肤白皙、年龄较大且有个人或家族黑色素瘤病史的男性）的筛查策略。在未来的筛查模式中，明确界定这些人群并合理利用这些新技术将是至关重要的。
