Blood test may help detect skin cancer :
"Malignant melanoma was the most common skin cancer among 15- to 45-year-olds, and Australia had the highest incidence in the world, researchers at Perth's Edith Cowan University (ECU) said."
Prevention is always better than cure but early detection can be a life saver too. If they can get theis blood test to the stage where it is routine it will save a lot of heartache in this country. Melanoma can be fatal and it's something to which we are all vulnerable because of the depletion of the ozone layer and the intensity of the sun. As outdoors people then skin cancer is fairly frequent and we have to be ever vigilant. A blood test will be so welcome.
