  1. is the most invasive skin cancer with the highest risk of death. While it’s a serious skin cancer, it's highly curable if caught early.
  2. oncologists use radiation (strong beams of energy) to kill cancer cells or keep them from growing and dividing.
  3. disease that involves the growth of abnormal cells in your skin tissues. Normally, as skin cells grow old and die, new cells form to replace them.
