Summary

The objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of using reflectance confocal imaging to noninvasively detect and diagnose oral dysplasia and early carcinoma.

Conditions

  • Oral Tumors

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Reflectance Confocal Imaging

A photograph will be taken of any abnormal areas inside the mouth. A small probe will expose the oral lining to a small amount of light. Some of this light will be reflected back into the probe, and be picked up by a computer. Pictures will be made of the tissue.
