I-Basal Cell Carcinoma: I-Cancer 'Emnandi' Esiqhubekayo Iqhekeza Ubuso

I-basal cell carcinoma (BCC) yi-nto edumileyo ye-cancer emhlabeni jikelele, ibalelwa kwi-80% ye-cancer yesikhumba engengomelanoma. 6 zecala zichongiwe ngonyaka, kwaye umngcipheko uyaqhubeka ukhula ngenxa yokuguga kwabantu, ukunyuka kokuchayeka elangeni, kunye nokuphuculwa kokujolisa. I-BCC ikhulisa kwi-basal cells—iicell ezijolise kwi-basis ye-epidermis ezivelisa iicell zesikhumba ezintsha njengoko ezindala zife.

Le mikhuhlane ibonakala ngokubanzi kwiindawo ezichayekileyo elangeni: ubuso (ikakhulu i-nose), iitshomi, umqala, i-scalp, i-shoulders, kunye ne-back. Nantsi indlela i-BCC eqhelekileyo eyibiza ngayo i-cancer 'emnandi': ikhula kancinci, ayivamile ukuhamba (ukuhamba kwiingxenye ezahlukeneyo), kwaye xa ibanjwe kwangexesha, iyalapheka kakhulu ngempumelelo yokubukeka. I-5-year survival rate ye-BCC yi-100% xa ilapheka ngendlela efanelekileyo.

Kodwa nantsi inyaniso engathandekiyo ethintela ulwimi lwe-cancer 'emnandi': nangona i-BCC ingavuthwa rhoqo, iyadestroy. I-BCC engalaphekiyo ikhula ngokujulile nangokubanzi, ifaka kwiindawo zendawo kubandakanya i-cartilage kunye nebone. I-BCC encinci kwi-nose ingaqhekeza, emva kweminyaka, i-nasal structure, ifuna ukuhlinzwa kokwakha okungasekho mva.

I-BCC eduze kwe-ihlathi ingafaka kwi-orbit, mhlawumbi ibangele ukulahleka kokubona okanye ifune ukuhlinzwa kwe-ihlathi. I-BCC ye-tshomi ingaqhekeza yonke i-structure ye-tshomi yangaphandle. I-BCC ye-scalp ingangena kwi-skull.

Lezi azikho iimeko ezimbi ezivela rhoqo—ziyinkqubo yemvelo ye-bhubesi engalaphekiyo. Unyaka ngamnye wokulibazisa uvumela i-cancer ukuba ikhule ibanzi, ifake ngokujulile, kwaye ifune ukuhlinzwa okukhulu kunye nokungabukeki. Umahluko phakathi kokusebenza kwe-ofisi ye-15 imizuzu enesikhumbuzo esincinci kunye nokuhlinzwa kokwakha ubuso okukhulu ngokuqhelekileyo kukufumanisa iminyaka emininzi okanye emininzi yokungabukeli mva le ndawo 'ingenamsebenzi'.

' Ngexesha elithile, i-cancer ikhulisa ngokuthula, ihlela ukujolisa ukungabukeki kobuso bakho. Layisha umfanekiso kwaye ufumane iziphumo ngemizuzwana ngaphambi kokuba le ndawo ibe yingozi yokuhlinzwa.

I-basal cell carcinoma iyinkosi yokufihla, ibonakala kwiifom ezininzi ezahlukeneyo abantu abaninzi abahlula njengeemeko ezingenabungozi. I-Nodular BCC, uhlobo oludumileyo, ibonakala njenge-bump enombala we-perl okanye waxy, ikakhulu ineebhodi zetshe (telangiectasias) ezibonakalayo phezulu. Iyi-flesh-colored, pink, okanye ibhaki encinci, ikakhulu ibhaki, kwaye ingaba ne-depression ephakathi okanye i-ulceration ethamba kalula kwaye ayiphilanga.

Abantu bahlula oku njenge-pimple eqhubekayo. I-Superficial BCC ibonakala njenge-patch ye-pink okanye ye-red enezikhumbuzo eziphakamileyo, ikakhulu kwi-trunk nakwi-limbs. Ibukeka kakhulu njenge-eczema okanye i-psoriasis kwaye ihluleka rhoqo okanye iyaphoswa iminyaka.

I-Morpheaform (sclerosing) BCC yohlobo olubi kakhulu—ibukeka njenge-patch emhlophe okanye emdaka efana nesikhumbuzo esingaphantsi, enezikhumbuzo ezichaziweyo. Kulula ukuyiphosa njenge-scar yokulimala okuncinci, kodwa ngokuqhelekileyo iyinto engaphezulu ye-BCC eyandulelayo efaka ngaphantsi kwesikhumba esibonakalayo esingenabungozi. I-Pigmented BCC iqulethe i-melanin kwaye ibonakala ibhaki, blue, okanye mnyama, ikakhulu ihluleka ne-moles okanye i-melanoma.

I-Fibroepithelial BCC ibonakala njenge-bump eqinile, enombala wesikhumba okanye emdaka, ikakhulu kwi-back. Iimpawu zokuxwayisa: naluphi na ukwanda okutsha kwi-sikhumba esichayekileyo elangeni, ikakhulu ubuso, iitshomi, umqala, okanye i-scalp; i-sore ethamba, ibhaki, ibhaki, okanye engaphilanga kwiiveki ezimbalwa; i-bump ekhanyayo, ebonakalayo, okanye ye-perl; ukwanda kwe-pink enezikhumbuzo eziphakamileyo kunye ne-crusting ephakathi; indawo emhlophe okanye emdaka efana ne-scar ebonakalayo ngaphandle kokulimala kwangaphambili; indawo ekhula kancinci eguqukayo kwiinyanga ukuya kwiminyaka. Igama eliyintloko kukuphindaphinda—i-BCC ayiphumi kwaye ingenakuphuma njengeepimple okanye i-rashes.!!

Ikhona ngosuku nosuku, ngenyanga ngenyanga, ikhula kancinci. Le ndawo uthathe ixesha lokujolisa iminyaka emithandathu? Ifuna ukujoliswa ngoku.

Le 'pimple' engaphilanga? Ayisiyipimple. I-tragedy kukuba bangaphi abantu abaneefoto zibonisa i-BCC encinci, elula ukuyilapha iminyaka ngaphambi kokuba bafune unyango, ngelo xesha ifuna ukuhlinzwa okukhulu. Ungalindi—ukujolisa kwangexesha kugcina ubuso.

Nangona nabani na engenza i-basal cell carcinoma, izinto ezithile zandisa kakhulu umngcipheko wakho. Ukuchaphazeleka kwelanga okuphakathi kokuphila kwakho yinto ephambili—i-BCC ikakhulu yisifo sokulimala kwelanga. Ukushisa kwelanga, umzuzu wonke wokuchaphazeleka kwelanga okungavikelwanga, kuqokelela kwimemori ye-cellular yesikhumba sakho, kukhuphula umngcipheko we-cancer.

Abantu abanesikhumba esilula esishisa kalula kwaye sithamba kancinci babhekene nomngcipheko ophezulu—abo baneenwele ezimhlophe okanye ezibomvu, amehlo aluhlaza okanye aluhlaza, kunye nesikhumba esithambileyo bakhulu kakhulu. Kodwa abantu abanesikhumba esimnyama abavikelekile; benza i-BCC ngokuqhelekileyo kodwa bahlala bephuma kwiimeko ezinzima. Ukuphila kwiindawo ezinesikhumbuzo esininzi okanye kwiindawo eziphezulu apho i-UV radiation ibukhali kakhulu kukhuphula umngcipheko.

Imisebenzi yangaphandle kunye nemisebenzi yokuzonwabisa enika ukuchaphazeleka kwelanga okungapheliyo—ukulima, ukuhamba, ukwakha, ukugibela, ukuhamba ngesikhephe, ukuhamba ngesikhumbuzo—kongeza kakhulu umngcipheko we-BCC. Ukusebenzisa i-tanning bed kukhuphula umngcipheko kakhulu, kunye nezifundo ezithile zibonisa ukwanda kwe-50% okanye ngaphezulu kubantu abasebenzisa i-tanning beds ngaphambi kweminyaka engama-35. Umgca ophakathi kokuba ne-cancer yesikhumba ungumkhombandlela omkhulu: uma ube ne-BCC, unethuba le-40% lokuphosa enye phakathi kweminyaka emihlanu.!!

Abantu abane-BCC ezininzi bahlala bephosa ngokuqhelekileyo throughout ubomi. Ukwelashwa kwe-radiation kwezinye iimeko kukhuphula umngcipheko we-BCC kwiindawo eziphuhliswe, ngokuqhelekileyo eminyakeni emininzi kamva. Iingxaki eziphakathi kunye nezilonda, ngakumbi izilonda zokushisa, zingakhula i-BCC.

Ukuchaphazeleka kwi-arsenic (ngokhistorical ukusuka emanzini angcolileyo okanye ezinye iindawo zomsebenzi) kukhuphula umngcipheko. Ukunciphisa umphunga ngenxa yemithi (abamkeli be-organ transplant) okanye iimeko (HIV, i-chronic lymphocytic leukemia) kukhuphula kakhulu i-BCC incidence—abantu abathathayo banomngcipheko ophindwe kabini. Iimeko zejeneriki ezifana ne-basal cell nevus syndrome (Gorlin syndrome) zenze iibhiliyoni ze-BCCs ziqala kwi-teenage okanye kwi-early adulthood, zidinga ukugcinwa okuphila kunye nokuphindaphinda.

I-xeroderma pigmentosum, isifo esingaqhelekanga sokwenziwa kwe-DNA emva kokulimala kwe-UV, sikhupha umngcipheko omkhulu we-cancer yesikhumba. Umlando womndeni ubonisa umngcipheko wejeneriki nangaphandle kokuba ne-syndromes ezichaziweyo. Ubudala obuphakathi buhambelana nomngcipheko ophakanyisiweyo ngenxa yokuchaphazeleka kwelanga okuphakathi kokuphila.

Iqiniso elinzima: ukuba uyafunda oku kwaye ungaphezu kweminyaka engama-40 kunye nomlando wokuchaphazeleka kwelanga, unomngcipheko. Le ndawo oyigcinayo ingaba yi-BCC yakho yokuqala. Isikhumba sakho sikhumbuza indaba. Vumela i-AI ifunde yona.

Iindaba ezilungileyo malunga ne-basal cell carcinoma kukuba kukho iindlela ezahlukeneyo zokwelapha ezisebenzayo, ukhetho luncike kubungakanani be-BCC, indawo, uhlobo, kunye nomlando wakho wezempilo. Ukukhupha ngesandla kuyisikhumbuzo esiyigolide kwi-BCC ezininzi—i-tumor ikhishwa kunye nomda wesikhumba esivela ngaphandle ukuqinisekisa ukususwa okupheleleyo, emva koko ilonda livalwa. Oku kuqinisekisa isampulu yesikhumba sokuhlola ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukususwa okupheleleyo.

Izinga lokuphola lidlula i-95% kwi-BCC zokuqala. I-Mohs micrographic surgery iyindlela enembile kakhulu kwaye esebenzayo, enezinga lokuphola elingaphezulu kwe-99% kwi-BCC zokuqala. Ikhulu kakhulu kwi-BCC ezibekwe ebusweni, kwiindlebe, kunye nezinye iindawo ezibalulekileyo okanye ezisebenzayo; kwi-BCC ezinkulu okanye ezinzima; kwi-BCC eziphindaphindayo; kunye ne-BCC ezineemida ezingacacanga.

Le ndlela ibandakanya ukususa i-layer ye-cancer ngokwehlisa, ihlola ngokukhawuleza i-layer nganye phantsi kwe-microscope, kwaye iyama kuphela xa imida icacile. Oku kugcina inani elikhulu lesikhumba esinempilo ngelixa kuqinisekisa ukususwa okupheleleyo kwe-cancer—kubalulekile xa yonke i-millimeter yesikhumba ibalulekile kwi-reconstruction kunye nokubukeka. I-electrodesiccation kunye ne-curettage (ED&C) ibandakanya ukususa i-cancer ngengxowa yokuhlanza emva koko ibhujiswa indawo ngentambo ye-electrocautery.

Ilungele i-BCC ezincinci, eziphezulu kwiindawo eziphantsi komngcipheko kodwa inezinga eliphezulu lokuphinda (5-15%) kune-excision okanye i-Mohs surgery. I-cryotherapy isebenzisa i-nitrogen ye-liquid ukunciphisa nokubulala i-cancer, ilungele i-BCC ezincinci, eziphezulu kodwa inemida yokuvuma ukususwa okupheleleyo kunye nezinga lokuphinda le-5-10%. Ukuphathwa kwe-radiation kusetyenziswa xa ukwelashwa kungavumelekanga ngenxa yemeko yomntu, indawo ye-tumor, okanye ukhetho lomntu, okanye njengokwelashwa kokunceda emva kokwelashwa kweempawu eziphezulu.

Iphinda ifuna ukwelashwa okuphindaphindiweyo ngaphezulu kwemihla kwaye ibamba imiba yokubukeka kwexesha elide kunye nomngcipheko we-cancer yesikhumba eyenziwe yi-radiation eminyakeni emininzi kamva. Imithi ye-topical efana ne-imiquimod cream (umphumo wokuphendula) kunye ne-5-fluorouracil cream (chemotherapy) zihlala zikhona kwi-BCC eziphezulu kwiindawo eziphantsi komngcipheko, zifakwe kwiiveki ukuya kwiinyanga. Ziqhuba ukwelashwa kodwa zineziqhamo eziphezulu zokuphinda kwaye zidinga ukulunga komntu ngenkqubo yokwelashwa engathandekiyo ebangela ukushisa, ukungonwabi, kunye ne-crusting.

I-photodynamic therapy (PDT) isebenzisa umphumo ophilayo ofakwe kwisikhumba emva koko ibonisa ukukhanya ukuze ibulale ii-cancer cells, isetshenziswa kwi-BCC eziphezulu. Into ebaluleke kakhulu kwi-BCC yokwelapha kukuphumeza—ukususa okungaphelelanga kuholela ekuphindeni, ngokuqhelekileyo kwi-form engaphezulu efuna ukwelashwa okukhulu.!! Le nto yenza ukuba i-Mohs surgery, nangona ibiza kakhulu kwaye ithatha ixesha, ikhethwe ngakumbi kwi-BCC ezibekwe ebusweni apho kokubili ukuphola kunye nokubukeka kubalulekile.

I-millimeter nganye yokulahleka kwesikhumba esingadingeki kwi-nose yakho, i-lip, okanye i-eyelid ibalulekile kwi-appearance yakho ngonaphakade. Ungaqiniseki ukuba iyingozi? Vumela i-AI ibone.

Iincwadi zonyango zisebenzisa ulwimi lwezempilo olufana 'nokungena kwendawo' kunye 'nofuna ukwakhiwa,' kodwa masibe sobala malunga nokuba i-basal cell carcinoma engaphuhliswanga okanye enganqandwa yenzani. I-BCC kwi-nose—indawo eqhelekileyo—iqala njenge-bump encinci ye-pearly okanye isilonda esingapholi. Ngaphezulu kweminyaka ukuya kwiminyaka, iyanda, ekugqibeleni ibhujiswa kwi-skin.

Njengoko iqhubeka ikhula, iyangena kwi-cartilage enika i-nose yakho isakhiwo. Ekugqibeleni, ingakwazi ukunciphisa ngokupheleleyo kwi-nose, idala umngxuma apho i-cartilage kunye nesikhumba bekukhona. Ukubuyiselwa kudinga ukwakha isikhumba ukusuka kwezinye iindawo zomzimba—i-forehead, i-ear, okanye i-rib cartilage—ukwakha isakhiwo se-nasal.

Nokuba ngaba uyiqonda i-plastic surgery, i-nose ayizukubukeka okanye ukusebenza ngendlela efanayo. Ukuphefumla kungaphazamiseka. Umphumo wepsychological wokungabukeki okukhulu ebusweni ubuhlungu.

I-BCC ye-ear ilandela umjoliso ofanayo, ekugqibeleni ibhujisa isakhiwo se-ear yangaphandle. I-BCC zokuqala kwi-ear zihlala zikhutshwa ngokulula kunye nemiphumo emihle yokubukeka. I-BCC ezinganqandwa zidinga ukususwa ngokwengxenye okanye ngokupheleleyo kwe-ear kulandela ukwakhiwa okunzima okanye i-prosthetic ears.

I-BCC eduze kwe-eyebrow ibaluleke kakhulu—ingangena kwi-orbit, idinga i-exenteration (ukususwa kwe-eye kunye nezikhumba ezikufutshane) kwiimeko ezinzima. Nokuba i-BCC ezincinci ezikufutshane ne-eyebrow zidinga ukwelashwa okucacileyo apho ukugcina isikhumba kubalulekile ukuze kusebenze i-eyelid. I-BCC kwi-scalp ingangena kwi-skull kwaye ikwazi ukungena kwi-bone ukuze ifike kwi-brain kwiimeko ezinzima—lezi zihlala zihlala zikhumbula.

Ububi kukuba le miphumo yokungabukeki iyakwazi ukuvikelwa ngokupheleleyo. I-BCC efumaneka xa ingama-5mm idinga ukususwa ngokulula kunye nesilonda esincinci. I-cancer efunyanwa ukuba ikhulile ukuya kwi-20mm idinga i-Mohs surgery, mhlawumbi ukwakha i-flap yendawo, kwaye ishiyela i-scar enkulu.

Ngama-40mm, ingadinga ukwakha okunzima kunye nezikhumba ezahlukeneyo kunye nokwelashwa okuphindaphindiweyo. Ngexesha elithile ibhujisa i-cartilage kunye ne-bone, umgibeli ubhekene nokungabukeki okungapheliyo naphezu kwemizamo yokwelashwa. Iifoto ze-BCC ezinzima zihlaba umxholo—imifanekiso engaphoswa ukuba iboniswe apha kodwa wonke umntu ophosa indawo enokukhathaza kufuneka ayibone.

Lezi azizizo iimeko ezinqabileyo ezivela kwiilizwe ezithuthukeleyo ngaphandle kokufikelela kwezonyango; zenzeka kwi-United States nakwezinye iilizwe ezithuthukeleyo xa abantu bephosa ukwelashwa ngenxa yokoyika, ukungavumi, ukungabi ne-inshorensi, okanye ukulibazisa nje. Njengomnye wabo bobuso obungabukeki, bonke baqala nendawo encinci engangaphathwa kwi-15-minute office procedure. Thatha imizuzwana engama-30 ukuze u-scan—kungasindisa ubuso bakho.

Ukuba udiagnosed nge-basal cell carcinoma, ubudlelwane bakho ne-skin cancer screening buye baphucukile ngonaphakade. Ukuba ne-BCC enye kuthetha ukuba unomngcipheko ophakanyisiweyo kakhulu wokuphosa i-BCC ezongezelelweyo—ngaphezulu kwe-40% yabantu abadiagnosed nge-BCC baphosa enye phakathi kweminyaka emihlanu. Abanye abantu benza iibhiliyoni okanye ngaphezulu kwe-BCC kwiimeko zabo, zidinga ukwelashwa okuphindaphindiweyo kunye nokuhlola okukhawulezayo.

Izizathu zokukhuphuka komngcipheko zicacile: izinto ezifanayo (ukuchaphazeleka kwelanga, uhlobo lwesikhumba, ijenetiki) ezibangele i-BCC yakho yokuqala ziqhubeka zisebenza kwi-surface yesikhumba sakho; ukulimala kwelanga kukhulu nangona kuphela indawo enye ibhujiswe kwi-cancer; umngcipheko wejeneriki kuthetha ukuba isikhumba sakho sikhululekile ekubeni nezi cancer. Emva kokudibana ne-BCC kunye nokwelashwa, kufuneka ube ne-examinations yesikhumba esipheleleyo rhoqo—ngokuqhelekileyo yonke iminyaka eyi-6-12 ekuqaleni, mhlawumbi ukugcina i-annual xa uhlala ucocekile kwiminyaka emininzi. Lezi zihlola i-BCC ezintsha kunye nokuphinda kwe-BCC eziphumelele.

I-BCC ephindayo ibhujisa kakhulu kune-BCC yokuqala, ngokuqhelekileyo ye-infiltrative okanye ye-morpheaform histologic subtype, kwaye idinga ukwelashwa okukhulu. Izinga lokuphinda lincike kumgangatho wokwelashwa kokuqala: i-Mohs surgery inezinga lokuphinda eliphantsi (ngaphantsi kwe-1% ye-BCC yokuqala, i-5% ye-BCC ephindayo), ngelixa i-ED&C kunye nezokwelapha ze-topical zineziqhamo eziphezulu zokuphinda. Ukuhlola ngokwakho kuba ngumkhuba ophila—ukuhlola rhoqo umzuzu wonke ubukele iindawo ezintsha okanye utshintsho kwiindawo ezikhoyo.

Ukuthatha imifanekiso yesikhumba sakho kudala umphumo wokufumanisa utshintsho oluncinci. Ukukhusela ilanga kuba yinto engavumelekanga: i-sunscreen ye-broad-spectrum SPF 30+ yonke imihla kwisikhumba esivulelekileyo, iimpahla zokukhusela ilanga, iihati ezine-brim ebanzi, ukufuna umthunzi, kunye nokugwema ilanga eliphakathi (10 AM ukuya kwi-4 PM xa i-UV ibukhali kakhulu). Kubantu abane-BCC ezininzi okanye umngcipheko ophakanyisiweyo, abanye abahlali bezonyango bacebisa i-field therapy—ukwelapha iindawo ezonakeleyo ze-sun ezineemithi ze-topical ezifana ne-5-fluorouracil okanye i-imiquimod ukuze kuhlangatshezwane nezi cancer ezingabonakali (zingakaboni).

Umthwalo wepsychological we-cancer yesikhumba ezininzi ubalulekile—ukukhathazeka ngaphambi kokuhamba kwi-dermatology ukucinga ukuba i-cancer ezintsha ziya kufumaneka, umthwalo wezezimali wokuphindaphinda, i-scars ezikhulayo, kunye nomphumo wokuba umzimba wakho ukhaliphile. Kodwa kukho nokuqonda kokuhlola: ukufumanisa i-BCC ezintsha kwangoko kuthetha ukwelashwa okulula, okungaphazamisiyo. I-alternativi—ukuphosa iindawo ezintsha okanye ukulibazisa iimeko zokulandela—kudinga umngcipheko ofanayo obaluleke kakhulu.

Uthanda le ndawo? Fumana uhlolo lwe-AI olukhawulezayo.

Nangona ungakwazi ukungaphinda ukulimala kwelanga, ungavikela ukulimala okwengeziwe kwaye unciphise umngcipheko we-BCC. Ukukhusela ilanga kukhulu kakhulu kokuthintela: faka i-sunscreen ye-broad-spectrum (ivikela kwi-UVA kunye ne-UVB) ene-SPF 30 okanye ngaphezulu yonke imihla kwisikhumba esivulelekileyo, ufake kwakhona yonke imihla emva kwemizuzu emibini xa uphume phandle kwaye emva kokuhamba okanye ukuvuka. Sebenzisa iimeko ezaneleyo—abantu abaninzi bafaka kuphela i-25-50% yebhajethi efunekayo; udinga malunga ne-ounce (i-shot glass egcwele) ukuze ucoce ngokupheleleyo umzimba wakho.

I-sunscreen kuphela ayanele: wear protective clothing including long sleeves, long pants, and wide-brimmed hats (at least 3-inch brim all around); seek shade especially during peak UV hours (10 AM to 4 PM); use UV-blocking sunglasses to protect the delicate eye area. Gcina i-tanning beds ngokupheleleyo—akukho tan ephephile evela kwi-UV radiation ye-artificial. I-myth ye-'base tan' ifuna ukufa: i-tan ibonisa ukulimala kwe-DNA kwaye inika ukuvikelwa okuncinci okulingana ne-SPF 3 ngelixa ikhuphula umngcipheko we-cancer yesikhumba.

Qaphela ukuchaphazeleka kwelanga ngexesha leemisebenzi eziphezulu zomngcipheko: ukugibela kunye nokuhamba (i-UV ibonisa kwi-snow, ikhulisa ukuchaphazeleka); ukuhamba kunye nemisebenzi ye-beach (amanzi abuyisela i-UV); ukugibela kunye nemidlalo yangaphandle. Iiwindi zivimba i-UVB kodwa hayi i-UVA, ngoko ukulimala kwelanga kwenzeka ngexesha lokuhamba—cinga i-UV-blocking window film kwiimoto. Jonga imithi yakho: ezinye i-antibiotics, diuretics, kunye nezinye i-drugs zenza i-photosensitivity, zandisa ukulimala kwelanga ngexesha lokusebenzisa.

Kubantu abane-BCC ezininzi okanye umngcipheko ophakanyisiweyo, i-chemoprevention nge-nicotinamide ye-oral (uhlobo lwe-vitamin B3) ibonakale ibonisa ithemba lokunciphisa ukuphosa kwe-cancer yesikhumba. Ukugcinwa kwe-dermatologic okujolise kwi-cancer ezintsha kwangoko xa zikhona. Ukuhlola ngokwakho kukuvumela ukuba ufumane i-lesions ezikhathazayo phakathi kokuhlola kwe-professional.

Ukufundisa abantwana iindlela zokukhusela ilanga kumisela imikhuba yokuphila—ukuchaphazeleka kwelanga okuninzi kwenzeka ngaphambi kweminyaka eyi-18, okwenza ukukhusela ilanga kubaluleke kakhulu. Umoya ophakanyisiweyo—'ndivele ndibe nokulimala kwelanga, ngoko ukuvikelwa ngoku akusayi kunceda'—akulunganga. Usuku ngalunye lokuchaphazeleka kwelanga okungavikelwanga longeza kumngcipheko wakho.

Usuku ngalunye lokukhusela lunciphisa umngcipheko wesikhathi esizayo. Ukuthintela akukwazi ukususa umngcipheko wakho we-BCC ukuba usuphelile, kodwa kuya kunciphisa inani le-cancer yesikhumba ozakufumana kwixesha elizayo kwaye kulibazise ukufika kwazo. Kubantu ababe ne-BCC, ukuthintela kukunciphisa umjelo we-cancer yesikhumba ukusuka kwi- flood ukuya kwi-trickle.

Isikhumba sakho sikhumbuza indaba. Vumela i-AI ifunde yona.

I-basal cell carcinoma iyakwazi ukuphathwa kahle kakhulu xa ibonwa kwangoko kodwa ingabangela ukungafani xa iphathwa kabi. Inselelo kukukwazi ukuqonda ukuba yiziphi iindawo ezidinga ukuhlolwa ngochwepheshe kunye neziphi ezingenabungozi. I-Skinscanner iyindlela yakho yokuqala yokukhusela, ibonelela ngohlalutyo olukhawulezayo lwezindawo ezikhathazayo phakathi kokuhlangana neengcali ze-dermatology.

I-artificial intelligence yethu ifundiswe kwiithagethi eziliqela ze-BCCs kunye nezindawo ezingenabungozi, ifunda ukuchonga iimpawu ezincinci ezihlukanisa umhlaza kwiindawo ezingonakaliyo. Ngena nje umfanekiso wazo naziphi na iindawo ezikhathazayo usebenzisa i-smartphone yakho, kwaye i-AI yethu iyahlalutya kwiiyure, ibonisa iimpawu ezikhathazayo kunye nokuphakamisa ukuba ukuhlolwa nguchwepheshe kudingeka. Kubantu abaninzi abaninzi—ukuxilongwa kwe-BCC yangaphambili, isikhumba esilula, imbali enkulu yokuchaphazeleka elangeni—i-Skinscanner ivumela ukugcinwa rhoqo kwephezulu yesikhumba sakho.

Indlela ecebileyo: thambilisa naziphi na iindawo ezintsha okanye ezitshintshayo ngenyanga, udale umjikelo wombono owenza iimpembelelo ezincinci zibe sobala. I-AI iyakwazi ukuchonga iimpawu ezikhathazayo ezifana nemida ye-perly, i-telangiectasias, ukungabikho kokuphuma, okanye ukubonakala okufana nesikhumba okukhankanywe kwiintlobo ezahlukeneyo ze-BCC. Oku kubalulekile kakhulu ekujoleni kwiindawo ezinzima ukufumana ezifana ne-scalp, iindlebe, kunye nomva apho i-BCCs ivame ukuvela kodwa ukuhlolwa komzimba kunzima.

Kubantu abake baphathwa nge-BCC, i-AI iyanceda ukulandelela ukuvela kwakhona kwiindawo zokuphathwa zangaphambili—naziphi na iindawo ezintsha okanye ezingenakuphola eduze kwe-BCC yangaphambili kufuneka zihlolwe ngokukhawuleza njengoko i-BCCs eziphindaphindiweyo ziba neempembelelo ezinzima. I-Skinscanner ayithathi indawo yokuhlolwa ngochwepheshe kwe-dermatology kunye ne-biopsy—ukuxilongwa kwe-BCC okuqinisekileyo kudinga ukuhlolwa kwe-pathologic kwesikhumba—kodwa iyithuluzi lokuhlola elifikelelelekayo elibamba iimpawu ezibomvu kwangoko, mhlawumbi kwiinyanga okanye kwiiminyaka ngaphambi kokuba ufune ukuhlolwa.
