Oncodermatology

Oncodermatology is a specialized medical field that focuses on the skin-related aspects of cancer. It involves diagnosing, treating, and managing skin changes caused by cancer itself or its treatments, such as chemotherapy or radiation. This includes cancers that originate in the skin, like melanoma, as well as skin conditions that develop in cancer patients. Oncodermatologists work to identify suspicious skin lesions early, improve skin-related symptoms, and ensure comprehensive cancer care. Their expertise helps in early detection, effective treatment, and maintaining quality of life for patients with skin cancers or skin issues related to cancer treatments.
