Journal ArticleDOI
Confocal Imaging–Guided Laser Ablation of Basal Cell Carcinomas: An Ex Vivo Study
Journal ArticleDOI
Confocal Microscopy–Guided Laser Ablation for Superficial and Early Nodular Basal Cell Carcinoma: A Promising Surgical Alternative for Superficial Skin Cancers
TL;DR: Confocal microscopy may enhance the efficacy and reliability of laser tumor ablation and, when combined with an ablative laser, may one day provide an efficient and cost-effective treatment for BCC.
Journal Article
Handheld reflectance confocal microscopy to aid in the management of complex facial lentigo maligna.
Brian P. Hibler,Oriol Yélamos,Miguel Cordova,Heidy Sierra,Milind Rajadhyaksha,Kishwer S. Nehal,Anthony M. Rossi +6 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that HRCM is a versatile ancillary tool in pretreatment decision-making, intraoperative surgical mapping, and posttreatment monitoring of complex facial LM/LMM.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbon dioxide laser ablation of basal cell carcinoma with visual guidance by reflectance confocal microscopy: a proof-of-principle pilot study.
Brian P. Hibler,Heidy Sierra,Miguel Cordova,William Phillips,Milind Rajadhyaksha,Kishwer S. Nehal,Anthony M. Rossi +6 more
TL;DR: Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) provides noninvasive, cellular‐level resolution imaging of the skin and is capable of identifying tumour.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reflectance confocal microscopy-guided laser ablation of basal cell carcinomas: initial clinical experience.
Heidy Sierra,Oriol Yélamos,Oriol Yélamos,Miguel Cordova,Chih-Shan Jason Chen,Milind Rajadhyaksha +5 more
TL;DR: The efficacy results appear to be promising, with observed clearance in 19 cases of 22 cases with follow-ups ranging from 6 to 21 months, and the imaging resolution appears to be sufficient and consistent for monitoring efficacy of ablation in the wound.
