Melanoma incidents and mortality data and projections. Data up to 2015 and projections for 2019 and 2021 Melanoma starts in cells called melanocytes. These are the cells that make the melanin that give your skin its colour. Most melanomas start in areas of the skin that have been overexposed to the sun. But they can also occur rarely in parts of the body that have never been exposed to the sun. Melanoma is the most dangerous type of skin cancer. Please visit the CHeReL Data System (https://www.cherel.org.au/datasets) for further information and discover a wide range of continuously updated core health-related datasets in NSW and the ACT. |
