Wide-Field and High Resolution in Vivo Imaging in Visualizing Lesions in Patients with Oral Neoplasia Undergoing Surgery

Description

This clinical trial studies wide-field and high resolution in vivo imaging in visualizing lesions in patients with abnormal or uncontrolled oral cell growth (neoplasia) undergoing surgery. Diagnostic procedures, such as wide-field and high resolution in vivo imaging, are devices that let researchers look at a wide area of the lining of the mouth by shining different colors inside the mouth and taking pictures and this may help doctors to decide if a mouth lesion has a high risk of being pre-cancerous or cancerous.

Conditions

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility Criteria

  • * Adult subjects with oral lesions undergoing surgical resection (i.e., only patients who are scheduled to undergo a surgery of the head \& neck area to remove or biopsy oral lesions will be eligible to participate in the study); patients with previous treatment are eligible
  • * Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document (ICD)
  • * Known allergy to proflavine or acriflavine
  • * Pregnant or nursing females
  • * The participant will be excluded from participation in another clinical research trial (i.e., a trial in which an agent is actively administered to the study subject), while being imaged (on active treatment) on this protocol
