Shedding computational light on early invasive skin melanoma

Researchers at the Cheriton School of Computer Science have elucidated a key piece in the puzzle to detect early invasive skin melanoma. Using computational models of the skin to simulate the complex biophysical changes during early stages of tumour progression, the research holds the potential to improve non-invasive diagnostic methods, particularly in resource-limited regions.
