The Rise of Melanoma

Season 35 Episode 14 | 27m 04s

Melanoma is a type of skin cancer. The American Cancer Society calls it less common than other forms of skin cancer, but more likely to grow and even spread. Dermatologists say they are finding more melanoma than ever before. We wanted to make people aware of their sun exposure, of their moles and what role family history might play in diagnosing melanoma.
