    GlossaryScalp Melanoma

    type of skin cancer originating in pigment-producing cells on scalp

    Scalp melanoma is a type of skin cancer that originates in the melanocytes, the cells responsible for producing pigment, and occurs specifically on the scalp. It is particularly dangerous because it can be more challenging to detect early due to hair coverage and tends to have a higher risk of spreading to other parts of the body compared to melanomas in other locations.
