Fluorescence diagnosis aims to improve the management of oral cancer via early detection
of the malignant lesions and better delimitation of the tumor margins. This paper presents a …

aminolevulinic acid (ALA)‐induced protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) fluorescence has shown an
outstanding sensitivity for the assessment of oral lesions, but its application was hampered …

Abstract Background and Objectives Studies of 5‐aminolevulinic acid‐induced
protoporphyrin IX fluorescence have shown a sensitivity of 95–100% for oral cancer …

BACKGROUND: Early detection of premalignant/malignant lesions in the oral cavity can
certainly improve the patient's prognosis. This study presents fluorescence imaging with the …

Objectives: Early cancer detection is the best way to improve the prognosis of patients with
oral cancer. Therefore this study presents quantitative fluorescence measurements and …

Introduction: Topical application of 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) by means of a rinsing
solution has been shown to be a promising new procedure in the diagnosis of oral …

BACKGROUND: Semiquantitative fluorescence measurements following topical application
of 5aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) in 16 patients with neoplastic lesions of the oral cavity were …

Progression of oral mucosal lesions is generally marked by changes in the concentration of
the intrinsic fluorophores such as collagen, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) …

Background: The prognosis of patients with oral cancer can be improved by early diagnosis.
Exact demarcation of tumor margins could contribute to optimum results in surgical excision …

Introduction The prognosis of patients with Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) are
directly related to the stage of development of the tumor at the time of diagnosis, but it is …
