Keywords: Malignant melanoma; Melanocytic nevus; Cell adhesion molecules; Carcinoembryonic antigen

Upon completion of this activity, you will be able to:

define cell adhesion molecules such as members of the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) family.
describe the relationship between cell adhesion molecules such as CEA and CEA adhesion molecule-1 (CEACAM1) and the development and progression of malignant melanoma.

The ASCP designates this educational activity for a maximum of 1 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should only claim credit commensurate with the extent of their participation n the activities.

This activity meets MOC Part II Lifelong Learning requirements. A self-assessment option is available for pathologists attending this program to earn SAM credits for Maintenance of Certification, Part II Self-Assessment Modules (MOC-SAM) for part of the course. For MOC brochure, click here.
