Basal cell carcinomas arise from the layer of skin cells present along the lowest layer of the epidermis and are the most common form of skin cancer. They are locally aggressive so they ought to be treated before they get so large that removal becomes difficult. The tumor has a shiny surfa...
In recent years, deep learning models applied to computerized skin cancer discovery has become a standard. These models can improve their performance by being able to access more data and its main task is to the classification of images. This task is exceptionally valuable in the field of ...
Skin cancer (SC), is one of the most devastating cancers of the present decade, and the fifth commonest form of cancer [1,2,3]. It is further predicted to surpass heart disease as the main cause of mortality and the biggest obstacle to extending life expectancy in the next decades. Acc...

Computer-aided skin cancer classification systems built with deep neural networks usually yield predictions based only on images of skin lesions. Despite presenting promising results, it is possible to achieve higher performance by taking into account patient demographics, which are important clues that ...
we use clinical and dermoscopic images of skin lesions along with patient metadata from the Interactive Atlas of Dermoscopy dataset (1011 cases; 20 disease labels; 3 management decisions) and demonstrate that predicting management labels directly is more accurate than predicting the diagnosis and then ...
An unbalanced microbial ecosystem on the human skin is closely related to skin diseases and has been associated with inflammation and immune responses. However, little is known about the role of the skin microbiome on skin aging. Here, we report that the
