“…RCM enables in vivo, non-invasive imaging of the skin layers and cellular structures in a horizontal plane at quasi-histologic resolution [11]. This imaging technique has been widely used in the diagnosis [12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20] and therapeutic monitoring [21,22,23,24,25] of skin cancer and inflammatory [26,27,28,29,30] and infectious skin diseases [31,32,33]. Numerous studies have investigated the diagnostic accuracy of in vivo RCM for BCC.…”
