Abstract
In this paper we report the use of a novel multimodal imaging hand-held probe for guiding laser and radiotherapy on nonmelanoma skin cancers (NMSCs) patients. This probe combines the capability of reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) with that of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) to reliably detect cancer markers and measure cancer depth of invasion. These capabilities have shown to be very effective in accurately measuring cancer margins and guiding the therapy.
