In an interview with Targeted Oncology, Howard D. Edington, MD, discussed Allegheny Health Network’s recently unveiled Melanoma and Skin Cancer Center and its new technology.
In November 2023, Allegheny Health Network (AHN) announced its new Melanoma and Skin Cancer Center located at West Penn Hospital in Pittsburgh, PA. The center is a culmination of over a decade of planning and aims to combine research and clinical treatment facilities.
Modeled after the National Cancer Institute in Bethesda, MD, the center’s main focus is finding a cure for patients with melanoma and skin cancer. One way experts are going about this is through the utilization of the VECTRA WB360 whole-body imaging system.
