My dad passed away from squamous cell carcinoma in 2010. In retrospect, through my casual research into the space and tools like this one, it occurs to me that the entire event was likely preventable and occurred merely because we did not react quickly enough to the cancer’s presence.
Thanks for your comment - my practice is focused on skin cancer and I see so many patients that bring a photo from many months earlier that shows an obvious skin cancer that could have been treated more easily at an earlier stage. Patient education should enable these to be picked up sooner.
