About Cancer
Cancer is defined as an uncontrolled growth of a group of cells in the body. It can have devastating affects. Some cancers are manageable and even curable, others are terminal. It all depends on the type and location of the tumors or cells. Cancer treatments vary from cancer to cancer. There is chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and a multitude of alternative treatments available. New drugs and treatments are being explored everyday through clinical trials in the United States and other countries.
About Melanoma
Melanoma is cancer of the skin. It is found in cells that make pigment called melanocytes. It can occur in the skin, in moles, or pigmented areas and also the eye and intestines. The three types of skin cancer that account for nearly 100% of skin cancers are basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and malignant melanoma. Merkel cell carcinoma is an extremely rare skin cancer but is very aggressive.
