A discussion on Nodular Melanoma.
Nodular melanoma (NM) is an aggressive subtype of melanoma, a type of skin cancer that originates from the melanocytes, the pigment-producing cells. Unlike other melanomas, NM grows vertically into the skin rather than spreading along the surface, making it more invasive and dangerous. It typically appears as a raised, dome-shaped nodule that can be black, blue, red, or colorless.
