A community-based RCT for oral cancer screening with toluidine blue.
Early detection of oral premalignant lesions (OPMLs) by visual inspection with toluidine blue has not been addressed. We conducted a community-based randomized controlled trial to assess whether using toluidine blue as an adjunctive tool for visual screening had a higher detection rate of OPMLs and could further reduce the incidence of oral cancer. In 2000, in Keelung, we randomly assigned a to...
متن کاملHistopathologic evaluation of mast cells in reticular and erosive oral lichen planus using toluidine blue staining
Introduction: Oral Lichen Planus (OLP) is one of the most common mucocutaneous lesion, and its etiologic factors have not been elucidated yet. OLP has two different clinical forms including reticular and erosive. Mast cells function in non-specific immunology is an etiologic factor involved in the formation of lichen planus. This study aimed at determining the pattern of mast cells presence in ...
متن کاملPhotosensitization of T2 coliphage with toluidine blue.
The photodynamic action of dyes upon biological systems has been reviewed by Blum (1941). Inactivation of bacteriophage by this process has been studied by Clifton (1931), Perdrau and Todd (1933), Burnet (1933), Morales (1941), and Pacheco and Morales (1941). More recently, Welsh and Adams (1954) and Yamamoto (1956, 1958) investigated the kinetics of photodynamic inactivation of coliphage. In t...
متن کاملDiagnostic efficiency of toluidine blue with Lugol's iodine in oral premalignant and malignant lesions.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES In vivo stains are prompt resources, which have emerged, in the recent years, to aid as clinical diagnostic tools in detecting early premalignant and malignant lesions. The aim of the study was to determine the diagnostic efficiency of toluidine blue with Lugol's iodine in oral premalignancies and malignancies and to evaluate the reliability of in vivo staining with to...
متن کاملThe use of toluidine blue in the detection of pre-malignant and malignant oral lesions.
INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the toluidine blue (TB) test as a diagnostic tool in the detection of malignant and dysplastic lesions of the oral cavity. This study was carried out because of a lack of consensus among different authors on the utility of TB, as well as to determine useful adjuncts to detect oral pre-cancer and cancer. MATERIALS AND METHO...
