Australia has one of the highest rates of skin cancer in the world, with around two in three Australians diagnosed at some point in their lives. This is a combination of the Australian lifestyle and the climate. Early detection of any type of cancer is important, as it significantly improves the effectiveness of the treatment. In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has become an important diagnostic tool that aids medical staff in the earlier identification of skin cancer. By combining advanced imaging technologies with intelligent software, AI gives early, accurate information on skin cancer, allowing swift, appropriate treatment.

Protecting the skin from the sun is a health priority, particularly in Australia where ultraviolet (UV) radiation levels are high.
