Occupational Sun Exposure and Melanoma Development: A Review of the Evidence

open access: yesAustralasian Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cutaneous melanomas arise through a number of causal pathways, all of which involve exposure to sunshine or artificial ultraviolet (UV) radiation to some extent. Their initiation also depends on host factors that determine susceptibility to melanoma, and whether the UV exposure is intermittent or chronic.

Robustness of a convolutional neural network trained on dermoscopic images and challenged with close‐up images

open access: yesJDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.
Summary Background and Objectives Deep learning‐convolutional neural networks (DL‐CNNs) have demonstrated high diagnostic accuracy within the domain of dermoscopy. However, many clinical settings lack dermoscopic devices, requiring reliance on close‐up images. This study evaluates the robustness of a DL‐CNN trained on dermoscopic images when challenged
