Abstract Background and Objective An early detection of oral cancer might improve the
patient's prognosis. We present preliminary results of autofluorescence photodetection of …

Abstract Background and Objectives Autofluorescence spectroscopy is a promising tool for
oral cancer detection. Its reliability might be improved by using a reference database of …

Regular screening through white light inspection of the entire oral mucosa is the most
important examination method to identify precancerous lesions and early oral carcinoma …

Background There is an important global need to improve early detection of oral cancer.
Recent reports suggest that optical imaging technologies can aid in the identification of …

Purpose: the detection of malignant tumours relies on a variety of diagnostic procedures
including X-ray images and, for hollow organs, endoscopy. the purpose of this study was to …

Oral cancer screening is important for early detection and early treatment, which help
improve survival rates. Biopsy is invasive and painful, while fluorescence visualization using …

OBJECTIVE AND STUDY DESIGN: Several noninvasive adjunctive methods have been
proposed for identification of potentially malignant mucosa lesions. The VELscope is an …

There is no satisfactory mechanism to detect premalignant lesions in the upper aero‐
digestive tract. Fluorescence spectroscopy has potential to bridge the gap between clinical …

The survival of patients with oral cancer is decreased by locoregional recurrence after an
initial multimodal treatment. In order to identify lesions in the oral cavity for a possible …

Objectives VELscope® was developed to inspect oral mucosa autofluorescence. However,
its accuracy is heavily dependent on the examining physician's experience. This study was …
