Ex vivo confocal microscopy: a diagnostic tool for skin malignancies.

Abstract:

:Confocal microscopy is an imaging tool that uses a laser system to image the skin noninvasively with cellular resolution. With both in vivo and ex vivo systems, tissue can be imaged rapidly without damaging the sample. Herein, we discuss the capabilities of the ex vivo confocal microscope and its implementation for treatment and management of cutaneous malignancies.
