In this latest podcast, Professor Michael Henderson (Professor of Surgery at the University of Melbourne) gives a sneak peek into his presentation at the upcoming Skin & Skin Cancer Conference and Masterclasses in Brisbane on 21-24 July 2022, where he will talk about contemporary management of melanoma.
In the podcast, Prof Henderson talks with Professor David Wilkinson (Chief Medical Officer of National Skin Cancer Centres) about the big changes that are happening with melanoma management in primary care and within advanced facilities, too.
Melanoma treatments are rapidly evolving and have come a long way in recent years – and there are a lot of changes coming in the near future!
Prof Henderson speaks about the management of high-risk melanoma patients, the role of the sentinel node biopsy, candidates for adjuvant therapies such as immunotherapy, updates to Australian melanoma treatment guidelines, the management of melanoma by GPs in the primary care setting, and more.
