No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Objectives:

1. To assess the tolerability of performing optical coherence tomography and/or optical spectroscopy in patients with acute oral mucositis.
2. To determine the feasibility of obtaining optical coherence tomography images and/or fluorescence excitation emission matrices from normal and affected sites in patients with acute oral mucositis.
3. To compare optical data obtained with optical coherence tomography and/or spectroscopy with the clinical appearance and scoring of oral mucositis lesions.
