Title: Perioperative noninvasive optical imaging: A changing paradigm for management of keratinocyte carcinomas
Abstract: One of the major challenges faced when treating high-risk keratinocyte carcinoma (KC) is the unpredictable subclinical extension. Yaroslavsky et al. (2020) evaluated dual-wavelength optical polarization imaging (OPI) for the detection for KC margins before Mohs surgery with promising results. OPI might be useful as a screening tool to limit unnecessary surgery. © 2020 The Authors
