Grant Activity:
Assessing diagnostic accuracy for melanoma with compared to without access to Melanoma Surveillance Photography in high-risk individuals
Purpose:
Skin cancer is Australia's most common and most expensive cancer, but costs vary greatly depending on the stage at diagnosis. Taking a set of total body photographs to use as a reference during skin checks, has shown the potential to improve the accuracy of diagnoses. If confirmed, this would lead to earlier detection, improved survival, better quality of life and lower treatment costs. The financial implications, should total body photographs be reimbursed by Medicare, are not fully understood.
