“…In Japanese populations [1] as in white populations [2], there has been an apparent increase in the incidence of cutaneous malignant melanoma. Despite this increase, survival rates have increased substantially, due to improvements in early diagnosis using skin surface microscopy and computerized imaging [3,4]. But in advanced melanoma, the prognosis is still poor.…”

“…Their pooled estimates for FDG PET ranged from 66% to 93% for sensitivity and from 78% to 95% for specificity (10,11). The value of FDG PET in the initial staging of CMM patients has been claimed by many recent narrative reviews, published from 2002 to 2006, without any quantitative evidence base for support (12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19).…”
