What this study is

To learn if a new type of imaging device called the Active Biopsy Guidance System can help doctors to decide when and where to perform invasive biopsies of mouth lesions.

What's being tested

  • High Resolution Microendoscope (HRME)

    Intervention · DEVICE

    The High Resolution Microendoscope (HRME) take pictures of a very small area of the lining of the mouth, about the size of a pencil tip, but at high magnification.

  • Optical Mapping Scope

    Intervention · DEVICE

    The optical mapping scope displays a wide area of the lining of the mouth (about the size of the top of a soda can) by shining different colors of light into the mouth and taking pictures.

  • Proflavine hemisulfate

    Intervention · DRUG

    A coloring substance (a fluorescent dye which glows green in the dark), called proflavine hemisulfate, will be painted on areas of the mouth with a cotton tip applicator to help improve the pictures
