The first day of fall doesn’t mean we stop protecting our skin from the sun 🌞.
FOX 5 San Diego reports that over 9,500 people in the U.S. are diagnosed with skin cancer every day, and this year, more than 212,000 new cases of melanoma are expected.
In this coverage, Dr. Melanie Palm highlights the importance of daily sunscreen use and regular skin self-checks using the ABCDE rule - simple but powerful steps in prevention. It’s encouraging to see this awareness growing, reminding us how critical early detection is.
At DermaSensor, we believe technology can support both patients and clinicians in identifying risk earlier, and complement the daily prevention practices that protect us all. In our pivotal study, DermaSensor demonstrated 96% sensitivity and cut physicians’ missed skin cancers by half.
