Due to my misspent or well spent younger days under the Australian sun I’ve had skin cancers dry iced, cut out and creamed with Efudex (which is a shocker – give me the ice or the scalpel please). Anything that makes it easier to monitor and diagnose potential cancers is worthy of my three votes and more. This is especially good for those in rural and remote areas where the demands of life and the tyranny of distance can designate a doctor’s visit to check out a dodgy mole way down on the list of priorities.

Great innovation. Dr “Bones” McCoy of the Starship Enterprise knew a thing or two.
