Abstract
The most prevalent ovarian cancers, high-grade serous carcinomas (HGSCs), begin as lesions in the fallopian tubes. There is a need for tools that examine the fallopian tubes for early-stage ovarian cancers. We hypothesize an endoscopic imaging approach combining structural and functional imaging techniques (optical coherence tomography (OCT) and autofluorescence imaging (AFI) respectively) will be able to visualize cancerous or pre-cancerous changes in the fallopian tubes for early ovarian cancer detection. We present findings from an on-going ex vivo imaging study of fallopian tubes including sample cases demonstrating various cancers and preliminary features of interest.
