Finding Your Way with Ocular MelanomaClosing The Gap Between Ocular Oncologists: Introducing OMG (Oncology Mentoring Group)Why is ocular oncology an unusual subspecialty in medicine? It is unusual because standards of care vary between institutions and between ophthalmologists who practice ocular oncology. At one center, enucleation (removal of the eye) may be recommended, at another center, brachytherapy plaque may be recommended. One doctor may recommend continued observation because the tumor is located in the macula (the area of the retina responsible for central vision), another doctor may recommend enucleation for macula-involving melanomas because the central vision may be damaged. This is just the tip of the clinical variability iceberg. Furthermore, there are many...

Population HealthyPutting oncologists out of businessIn this episode of Population Healthy from the University of Michigan School of Public Health, Professor of Epidemiology Celeste Leigh Pearce digs into her team's extensive work on cancer research, focusing on ovarian, breast, and cervical cancers. Pearce outlines the possibilities of eradicating cervical and potentially other cancers through vaccination, screening and early detection. Her team puts a strong emphasis on disease prevention, aiming to lessen the occurrence of cancer cases. The ultimate goal is to put oncologists out of business — in other words, to leverage screening and other prevention tools that Pearce believes could ultimately eradicate certain cancers altogether.
