Detection of cancer using cellular autofluorescence |
| abstract |
Apparatus and methods especially useful for detection of cancer using cellular autofluorescence are described. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a source of white light which produces a beam of light transmitted to a tissue via one group of optic fibers in a two-way fiber optic bundle. The two-way fiber optic bundle may be passed through a conventional endoscope. The beam of light excites the tissue and results in an emission of cellular autofluorescence at a wavelength of about 330 nm. A light sample from the tissue is directed back through the two-way fiber optic bundle and then passes through a photodetector. The photodetector produces a signal, representative of the intensity of cellular autofluorescence, which can be passed to a monitor as a wave form or meter response. The apparatus may further comprise a charge-coupled device and video imaging technology to produce real time video images of tissue being examined. |
