Today’s video chat with Dr. Herzog will continue our discussion on the topic of moles and malignant melanoma. She will answer the following questions submitted by Family Savvy readers.

1. What can a patient expect at a “good mole check.?” (i.e. Is there any room for modesty?)

2. Is it necessary to check moles on parts of the body that have never seen the sun?

3. Does metastatic melanoma manifest externally, and can it be found via skin exam?

4. What is an “In Situ” melanoma?
