Title: | Confocal reflectance microscopy-guided margin-mapping of melanomas for pre-surgical planning |
Conference Title: | Frontiers in Optics 2004 |
Abstract: | Confocal reflectance microscopy may enable real-time in vivo imaging and mapping of the margins of primary cutaneous melanoma. Confocal maps of primary, pigmented and amelanotic cutaneous melanomas show excellent correlation to histology. Subclinical, subsurface tumor margins may be determined for pre-surgical planning, to guide biopsy and excision. © 2004 OSA/FIO 2004 |
