Abstract

The increasing prevalence of skin cancer worldwide can be understood as the result of excessive exposure to solar radiation. The screening and active search of lesions, as early as its initial phase, has been shown to be the main strategy for secondary prevention and treatment of this disease. Therefore, a voluntary extension project was elaborated with the objective to diagnose and treat the main actinic diseases of the skin. The subsequent article seeks to clarify the main outcomes obtained during this process.
