Abstract

Cutaneous oncology is currently a rapidly evolving field. Dermoscopy, total body photography, biomarkers, and artificial intelligence are affecting the way skin cancers, especially melanoma, are diagnosed and monitored. The medical management of locally advanced and metastatic skin cancer is also changing. In this article, we will discuss recent developments in cutaneous oncology with a particular focus on treatment of advanced cancers.
