New Skin Cancer Diagnostics

Friday, April 3rd, 2009

We here at Buy-Rash-Guards.com are all about UV protection as we know first hand how important it is to protect your skin from the harmful, cancer causing UV rays of the sun.

So we were excited to read about a team of researchers at the University of San Francisco, (UCSF), who have discovered a new and highly accurate way to distinguish malignant melanomas from benign moles by using genetic markers.

This method has proven to have a success rate over 90% compared to the typical biopsy which is examined microscopically. Researchers say that using this new method in conjunction with the standard microscopic examination will help diagnose difficult cases with much more accuracy.

As most people know, Melanoma is the deadliest and fasted spreading form of skin cancer. It can spread to almost any organ of the body and is difficult to treat in its advanced stages. The earlier it is diagnosed and treated, the higher the survival rate.

This is the first large-scale study to demonstrate both the high diagnostic accuracy and practicality of a multi-biomarker approach to melanoma diagnosis, according to Mohammed Kashani-Sabet, MD, professor of dermatology at UCSF and director of the Melanoma Center at the UCSF Helen Diller Family Comprehensive Cancer Center.

We can’t say it enough but please be sure to protect your family’s skin when you’re in or around the water with one of our rash guard shirts… the life you save could be your own or one of your kids!

U.S. Pledges $40 Million to Save Coral Reefs

Tuesday, February 3rd, 2009

Several months ago, the U.S. pledged $40 million to help save the Coral Triangle also known as “The Amazon of The Sea” for its biodiversity.

The reef system lies where the Pacific and Indian Oceans meet and covers six nations. It’s home to 30 percent of the world’s coral reefs, represents 75 percent of the known coral species and is threatened by pollution, unsustainable fishing practices and climate change.

The area covered is East Timor, Indonesia, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, and the Solomon Islands that comprise the Coral Triangle, which is also known as the Amazon of the Seas for its biodiversity.

We’ve talked about what you can do to help save coral reefs and told you how sunscreens are killing coral due to the bleaching effect of the chemicals found in them so be sure to wear a rash guard when you snorkel or dive  and do your part to help!
