The incidence of all skin cancers is increasing. If The health of the nation targets are to be addressed, incidence figures need to be more accurate. Solar damage is the major causal factor in all skin cancers. Certain individual risk factors also play an important part, especially in the development of malignant melanoma. Prevention and early detection are crucial in reducing morbidity and mortality from skin cancer. This paper considers the role of primary care skin screening clinics and cutaneous surgery facilities in the early detection and management of skin cancer. It also illustrates the value of a team approach in primary care in the prevention and early detection of skin cancer and in the more accurate recording of incidence rates.
所有皮肤癌的发病率都在上升。若要实现国家的健康目标，发病率数据需要更加准确。日光损伤是所有皮肤癌的主要致病因素。某些个体风险因素也起着重要作用，尤其是在恶性黑色素瘤的发生过程中。预防和早期发现对于降低皮肤癌的发病率和死亡率至关重要。本文探讨了基层医疗皮肤筛查诊所和皮肤外科设施在皮肤癌早期发现和管理中的作用。它还说明了基层医疗团队协作方法在预防和早期发现皮肤癌以及更准确记录发病率方面的价值。
