The WHO Classification of Skin Tumours

The WHO Classification of Skin Tumours is a globally recognized system that categorizes different types of skin cancers based on their appearance, behavior, and where they originate in the skin. It helps doctors identify, diagnose, and choose the best treatment by providing a detailed, standardized framework. This classification covers common skin cancers like melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma, as well as rarer types. It ensures consistency across medical practices worldwide, aiding in research and improving patient care by accurately describing each tumor's characteristics.
