“…This means that the autofluorescence-based device can be used as an effectiv screening method and follow-up examination in a high-risk patient population. The autofluorescence-based technique is a potentially novel procedure for screening and detecting oral malignant lesions early [38,39]. Any tissues that show fluorescent activity are potentially suspicious for malignancy, and hence should be properly biopsied.…”

At this juncture, autofluorescence and narrow-band imaging have resurfaced in the medicine arena in parallel with current technology advancement. The emergence of newly developed optical instrumentation in addition to the discovery of new fluorescence biomolecules have contributed to a refined management of diseases and tumors, especially in the management of upper aerodigestive tract tumors. The advancement in multispectral imaging and micro-endoscopy has also escalated the trends further in the setting of the management of this tumor, in order to gain not only the best treatment outcomes but also facilitate early tumor diagnosis. This includes the usage of autofluorescence endoscopy for screening, diagnosis and treatment of this tumor. This is crucial, as microtumoral deposit at the periphery of the gross tumor can be only assessed via an enhanced endoscopy and even more precisely with autofluorescence endoscopic techniques. Overall, with this new technique, optimum management can be achieved for these patients. Hence, the treatment outcomes can be improved and patients are able to attain better prognosis and survival.

Importance Currently, the prevalence of various diseases of the oral mucosa in the world has increased significantly (from 15.2% to 49.1%). Oncological pathology should be attributed to a separate group of diseases. In order to actively identify precancerous processes of the oral cavity, along with traditional methods of examination of the maxillofacial region, oncoscreening of the mucous membrane and organs of the oral cavity is mandatory. One of the possible methods of oncoscreening is autofluorescence stomatoscopy. Objectives To clarify the effectiveness of autofluorescence stomatoscopy as the main method of early diagnosis of precancerous diseases of the oral mucosa, its advantages and disadvantages. Methods In the process of investigating the effectiveness of autofluorescence stomatoscopy, methods of qualitative analysis and synthesis of available scientific literature on autofluorescence stomatoscopy were used. Conclusions It is concluded that the use of autofluorescence stomatoscopy for the early diagnosis of precancerous diseases of the oral mucosa remains controversial. Some clinicians believe that the introduction of autofluorescence stomatoscopy into the practice of a dentist as an additional method of oncoscreening of the oral mucosa is not only relevant, but also necessary; and the analysis of the light glow corresponds to the results of a biopsy. However, other researchers have concluded that the AFS-method will not replace the gold standard of histological examination, due to the low specificity of the method, the study can lead to overdiagnosis, and it can only be used by experienced clinicians to find the boundaries of precancerous lesions of the oral cavity for taking a biopsy in an altered mucous membrane.

AIM. To evaluate the feasibility of using the autofluorescence stomatoscopy in dental examination of patients with tuberculosis infection.MATERIALS AND METHODS. The objects of the study were 75 patients aged 21 to 65 years (average age 47.9±2.1 years), 48 men and 27 women (64% and 36%, respectively) who are at the stages of treatment and reha bilitation of the underlying disease (pulmonary tuberculosis) in a specialized tuberculosis sanatorium. The design of the study included the generally standard stages of a comprehensive dental examination of patients, in which diseases of the oral mucosa and the red border of the lips were additionally detected using autofluorescence stomatoscopy, as well as a laboratory Candida test was carried out. The clinical picture of the diagnosed pathological conditions of the oral mucosa, autofluorescence images and their pathomorphological features were compared. The reports of the examined persons regarding the autofluorescence stomatoscopy were evaluated.RESULTS. It was shown that diseases of the oral mucosa and the red border of the lips in patients with tuberculosis infection are highly common (92%), are found more often in males and differ in the heterogeneity of their structure, which is dominated by candidiasis of the oral mucosa, traumatic lesions and various forms of cheilitis. The features of autofluorescence images of pathological conditions of the oral mucosa of different nature of the origin are marked. Positive feedback from patients after the autofluorescence stomatoscopy was recorded in 100% of cases.CONCLUSIONS. The use of the autofluorescence stomatoscopy in the algorithm of dental examination of patients with tuberculosis infection is appropriate because it allows to implement the principle of oncological alertness among specialists, helps the doctor to obtain additional information about the pathological process in real time and increases the motivation of the examined persons to maintain dental health.
