OCT for Early Detection and Staging of Endobronchial Lung and Pleural Cancer, Airway Injury, and Prostate Cancer
Optical Coherence Tomography for Early Detection and Staging of Endobronchial Lung and Pleural Cancer, Airway Injury, and Prostate Cancer

Optic methods for obtaining images in airway passages for early detection of endobronchial lung and pleural cancer are needed. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive diagnostic technique that can provide information about tissue abnormalities. This technique uses a near-infrared diode to emit light that can produce images of the specimen under investigation without causing damage or alterations.

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive diagnostic technique that can provide information about tissue abnormalities. This technique uses a near-infrared diode to emit light that can produce images of the specimen under investigation without causing damage or alterations.

The research' want to compare the OCT results with that obtained from conventional histologic examination and to show that the OCT results may be almost as accurate as the standard Pathology results.

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a new technique being developed that can be used for visualizing human tissue. OCT offers a means of providing information on the characteristics and extent of a lesion (and abnormal change in structure of an organ).
