    Rachel E Neale
    Viertel Centre for Research in Cancer Control, Queensland Cancer Fund, Spring Hill, Queensland, Australia
    J Am Acad Dermatol 56:380-6. 2007

    Annika Antonsson
    Genetics and Population Health Division, Queensland Institute of Medical Research, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia

    Naomi M Richmond-Sinclair
    Cancer and Population Studies Unit, Queensland Institute of Medical Research, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia
    J Invest Dermatol 129:323-8. 2009
    ..We conclude that actual BCC tumor burden is much greater in the population than is apparent from normal incidence rates. Anatomic distribution of BCC is consistent with general levels of sun exposure across body sites...
