The incidence of both melanoma (MM) and non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) is on the rise. Among adults aged over 50, there has been an annual increase of 3.6 times in the incidence of MM. In 2016, the estimated number of new cases of skin cancer was 76,380, accounting for 45% of all new cancer cases.
Melanoma Skin Cancer Research
Causes and prevention Sunlight and ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Some research suggests there are 2 main ways that exposure to UV rays is linked to melanoma, but there is likely some overlap.. The first link is to sun exposure as a child and teenager. People with melanoma often have an early history of sunburns or other intense sun exposures, although not everyone does.
