Evaluation of Oral Mucosal Lesions Using the IllumiScan® Fluorescence Visualisation Device: Distinguishing Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Abstract: We evaluated whether fluorescence intensity (FI) and its coefficient of variation (CV) can be used to diagnose squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) through IllumiScan®, an oral mucosa fluorescence visualisation (FV) device. Overall, 190 patients with oral mucosal lesions (OMLs; SCC, 59; non-SCC OMLs, 131) and 49 patients with normal oral mucosa (NOM) were enrolled between January 2019 and March 2021. The FI of the images was analysed using image analysis software. After establishing regions of interest for SCC, non-S… Show more

“…Therefore, developing educational tools for visual examination is essential for improving diagnostic skills for oral mucosal diseases. However, no studies have evaluated the suitability of examination methods based on visual examination for pathological pictures [ 9 , 10 , 11 ]. The COVID-19 pandemic has increased the urgency for online medical consultations [ 12 , 13 ].…”
