Investigations for



        Non-melanoma skin



        cancer (NMSC)
















          Incisional biopsy


              At the proliferating edge of clinically

                 suspicious lesion






          Examination of regional lymph node basin


              Ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration

                 cytology






          Imaging               rarely          required            unless          locally

             aggressive tumours


              MRI/CT with contrast for the extent and

                 depth of invasion


              PET-CT to rule out distant metastasis
