Dermatologists identify and manage most of the NMSC in the United States and offer patients a broad range of surgical options. The use by dermatologists of office-based surgical methods not commonly used by other specialists may partially explain previous findings of better NMSC outcome by dermatologists. The low level of use of specific surgical options by some specialists may indicate the need for greater training/exposure to these methods.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
