Terahertz pulsed imaging of basal cell carcinoma ex vivo and in vivo
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Terahertz radiation lies between the infrared and microwave regions of the electromagnetic spectrum and can be used to excite large amplitude vibrational modes of molecules and probe the weak interactions between them. Terahertz pulsed imaging (TPI) is a noninvasive imaging technique that utilises this radiation. OBJECTIVES: To determine whether TPI could differentiate between basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and normal tissue and to test whether it can help facilitate delineation of tumour margins prior to surgery. METHODS: A portable TPI system was used in the clinic to image 18 BCCs ex vivo and five in vivo. RESULTS: The diseased tissue showed a change in terahertz properties compared with normal tissue, manifested through a broadening of the reflected terahertz pulse. Regions of disease identified in the terahertz image correlated well with histology. CONCLUSIONS: This study has confirmed the potential of TPI to identify the extent of BCC in vivo and to delineate tumour margins. Further clinical study of TPI as a surgical tool is now required.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
