Melanoma is the deadliest of skin cancers and the number of cases is on the rise. The amount of new invasive melanoma cases diagnosed annually increased by 27 percent in just the last decade. What are the signs and symptoms of melanoma? What should you be doing to prevent it? We talk about that and more with Dr. Alan Thomay, a surgical oncologist at the WVU Cancer Institute in this WVU Medicine Tuesday Talk.
