Topographic Variations in Normal Skin, as Viewed by In Vivo Reflectance Confocal Microscopy

Variations of the Normal Human Limbal Stem Cells Detected by In Vivo Confocal Microscopy

Background  To report normal variations of the limbal structures using in vivo laser scanning confocal microscopy. Methods: This was a retrospective study of fourteen eyes from 11 healthy individuals. Confocal imaging of cornea and limbus was performed using Heidelberg Retina Tomograph III Rostock Corneal Module. Results: The typical structure of the palisades of Vogt (POV) was detected ...

In Vivo Diagnosis of Skin Cancer through Reflectance Confocal Microscopy

In vivo reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) is an FDA approved non-invasive optical imaging technique that provides high-resolution cellular images of the skin. This new technology assists the dermatologist in the early diagnosis of skin cancers, thereby reducing the number of unnecessary biopsies performed and improving the malignant to benign biopsy ratio. In 2016, this new technology was a...

Reflectance confocal microscopy for in vivo skin imaging.

Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) is a novel noninvasive technique for "in vivo" examination of the skin. In a confocal microscope, near- infrared light from a diode laser is focused on a microscopic skin target. As this light passes between cellular structures having different refraction indexes, it is naturally reflected, and this reflected light is then captured and recomposed into a two...
