Ex Vivo Multimodal Imaging of Upper Aerodigestive Epithelium
Klíčová slova
Abstraktní
Popis
The overall objective of this exploratory study is to evaluate whether noninvasive fluorescence and reflectance imaging of the upper aerodigestive tract can help clinicians more accurately determine intraoperative margins during ablative cancer surgery. This is an ex vivo study designed to evaluate the feasibility of using prototype optical imaging technology to enhance the discrimination between areas of noncancerous "normal" and cancerous mucosa. The results of this laboratory study will be used to further refine and develop this technology for in vivo application.
Primary Aim:
(1) To collect data to develop imaging algorithms to distinguish between normal and cancerous upper aerodigestive mucosa.
Secondary Aims:
1. To compare the combination of wide-field fluorescence/reflectance and high resolution fluorescence microscopy images of upper aerodigestive epithelium to histopathologic analysis of biopsied tissue.
2. To compare the ability of sequential wide-field/fluorescence microscopy imaging to discriminate between normal and cancerous oral cavity mucosa with that of white-light images obtained after staining with toluidine blue.
