Our Mission:
To Advance Skin Cancer Treatment
About Us
At the time of the Association inception, there was no medical society focused on radiation therapy and other non-surgical options for skin cancer treatment. Certain medical societies advocated for surgical procedures and others concentrated on high-dose radiation treatments often found in the hospital setting.
​
The Dermatology Association of Radiation Therapy (DART) is committed to analyzing and educating on therapies that are most beneficial to patients, that are offered in the office, and that are delivered by the experts: dermatologists.
Our Core Objectives
We provide comprehensive research and clinical guidance on non-surgical radiation therapy as a primary treatment for skin cancer, prioritizing patient comfort and long-term outcomes.
​
With our members, we aim to advance advocacy efforts and research initiatives. Together, we can empower health through knowledge and collective action.
