Opis

Skin cancer falls into two groups: non-melanoma and melanoma. Squamous Cell carcinoma (SCC) is a type of non-melanoma skin cancer and is the second most common skin cancer with around 200,000 to 250,000 occurrences each calendar year. It is a malignant cancer that begins in the epidermis or the mucous lining in the body cavities. Several treatment options are available to treat this often devastating disease.
