Development and Validation of the Epidemiological Tattoo Assessment Tool to Assess Ink Exposure and Related Factors in Tattooed Populations for Medical Research: Cross-sectional Validation Study

Development and Validation of the Epidemiological Tattoo Assessment Tool to Assess Ink Exposure and Related Factors in Tattooed Populations for Medical Research: Cross-sectional Validation Study

Barton et al [16] examined the association between tattoos and basal cell carcinoma in a case-control study from New Hampshire, United States, that collected data in 2 phases between July 2001 and June 2002 and between July 2012 and June 2014. The authors found a possible increased risk of early basal cell carcinoma at the site of cosmetic tattoos compared to a non-tattooed body-part. Of note, both studies are limited by significant methodological shortcomings.
