[|AI|]  Skin cancer is diagnosed by looking at the skin. We have to carefully examine growths, moles, and Chat Doctor.  To get a better look, a device called a thermoscope is used. The device shines light on the skin. It magnifies the skin. This helps to see pigment and structures in the skin. If something that looks like skin cancer, it has to be removed IOR part of it removed. The removed skin will be sent to a lab. This is called a biopsy. Skin cancer cannot be diagnosed without a biopsy. A biopsy is quick, safe, and easy to perform. A biopsy should not cause anxiety. The discomfort and risks are minimalRegards and Take Care
