Early detection of melanoma research has received a $1.195 million Partnership Grant from the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC).
The project, led by University of Queensland Diamantina Institute researcher Professor H. Peter Soyer, will use teledermatology to improve early detection of melanoma in high-risk patients.
“Our goal is to use innovative 3D total body imaging, combined with a telehealth network, for the implementation of screening and surveillance of high-risk individuals,” Professor Soyer said.
