Skin cancers are generally grouped into either melanoma or non-melanoma skin cancers. Melanoma skin cancers comprise a higher rate of mortality, while non-melanoma skin cancers have a higher frequency rate. This paper describes different methods for the detection and classification of melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancer.

Currently, between 2 and 3 million non-melanoma skin cancers and 132,000 melanoma skin cancers occur globally each year (WHO, 2017). Skin cancer is one type of cancer that can cause death for many people. Because of this, an application is needed to easily detect skin cancer early that the cancer can be handled with more quickly. Besides, consultations with dermatologists have better prognosis (Avilés-Izquierdo et. al., 2016). Due to that, we built an early skin cancer detection application with dermatologist consultation. Our application helps to diagnose skin cancer before it grows into a life-threatening condition and is crucial to preserving lifestyle, future health, and aesthetics. Besides, thanks to online doctor consultations we have, however, getting diagnosed, prescribed and treated for your issues without spending time travelling to and from the doctors and waiting in queues can be just as effective. We used three management techniques such as machine learning to create data pipelines, build a model, and convert the model to TensorFlow lite with post-training quantization. Android to deploy the TensorFlow lite model and create the application. The application has a real-time connection using firebase. Moreover, cloud to create a simple database for doctor and diagnosis services on firebase.

Background: The screening program Life Fear-Free (LFF) aimed at early diagnosis of cutaneous melanoma (CM) was introduced in Samara, Chelyabinsk, Yekaterinburg, and Krasnodar (Russia) in 2019. Objectives: To analyze the impact of the program on early CM and non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) detection. Methods: According to the social educational campaign, people were informed about CM risk factors and symptoms and were invited for skin examination. The program planned to involve 3200 participants in total. Participants with suspicious lesions were invited for excisional biopsy. Results: 3143 participants, including 75.4% women, were examined for skin lesions. The average age of the participants was 43.7 years. Mostly skin phototypes II and III were registered (48.2% and 41.0%, respectively); 3 patients had CM, 15 had basal cell carcinoma, and 1 had Bowen’s disease, which were confirmed histologically. All detected melanomas had Breslow’s thickness of 1 mm. Conclusion: The participants showed high interest in early skin cancer detection programs. The incidence rate of CM and NMSCs among the program participants was higher than in general public. The early disease grade was proven for the detected CMs and NMSCs. The study has shown that it is important to continue such programs.
