Reflectance Confocal Microscopy Applications in Cosmetology

2011
Skin is a multi-functional organ that present distinct aspects in physiological and pathological conditions. The two main structural layers of the skin, the epidermis and the dermis, can be either affected by many pathologic processes. An inevitable skin change occurs with the passage of time (skin aging) that can be dramatically accelerated by ...

In vivo confocal reflectance microscopy in melanoma

Dermatologic Therapy, 2012
Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) enables the noninvasive in vivo imaging of the skin with a horizontal axis and a cellular-level resolution allowing the study of the skin from superficial layers to papillary dermis. It has arisen an important tool in the study of tumors and specially an important role in the characterization of melanoma ...

In vivo Reflectance Confocal Microscopy

Frontiers in Optics 2008/Laser Science XXIV/Plasmonics and Metamaterials/Optical Fabrication and Testing, 2008
Reflectance confocal microscopy provides real time, cellular resolution images of in vivo and ex vivo tissues. I will describe the development of these systems and how the properties of tissue influence the optical and overall system design.

Anal melanosis diagnosed by reflectance confocal microscopy

Australasian Journal of Dermatology, 2013
Until now, in vivo reflectance-mode confocal microscopy (IVCM) has been applied only to pigmented lesions of the vulvar and oral mucosa, but not to anal mucosa lesions. We present the first case in which IVCM has been used to diagnose anal melanosis. Clinical and dermoscopic features were of concern while IVCM found the draped pattern already described

Reflectance Confocal Microscopy for Skin Diseases

2012
This book focuses on the use and significance of in vivo reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) for non-invasive high-resolution imaging of the skin. All of the chapters in this hands-on guide are generously illustrated with numerous confocal images and structured in a reader-friendly way.

In Vivo Reflectance Confocal Microscopy in Dermatology

2016
Imaging techniques capable of noninvasive, high-resolution, skin imaging in vivo have been the focus of recent attention in the dermatology field. These efforts are directed to improve the diagnostic accuracy of skin cancer, especially cutaneous melanoma.

The diagnostic accuracy of dermoscopy and reflectance confocal microscopy for amelanotic/hypomelanotic melanoma: a systematic review and meta‐analysis

British Journal of Dermatology, 2019
Dermoscopy and reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) are noninvasive techniques for the diagnosis of skin lesions. Their accuracy for amelanotic/hypomelanotic melanoma (AHM) has not been systematically studied.

Basic principles of reflectance confocal microscopy

2008
The confocal microscope was invented by Marvin Minsky in 1957. 1,2 Minsky’s initial instrument scanned the sample with respect to the microscope to form an image. Subsequently, the confocal microscope was adapted to image human skin in vivo, using a white light source and a spinning disk of pinholes.

Reflecting on Confocal Microscopy: A Personal Perspective

2013
The first practical laser scanning confocal microscopes were introduced to the biomedical community over 30 years ago. Their subsequent development continues to influence the introduction of new methods and applications of optical sectioning microscopy.
