Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Proto-oncogene B-Raf (BRAF) mutation rates have been reported in nevi and melanomas of homogeneous Caucasian cohorts. OBJECTIVE: To study the demographics of BRAF mutations in dysplastic nevi of populations with differing potential solar UV radiation exposure. METHODS: Extended BRAF testing for 9 mutations in 125 dysplastic nevi from 101 patients, derived from populations with differing potential UV...
