Before the synchronized coregistered scanning, direct autofluorescence visualization-assisted OCT scanning will be investigated first. The clinical diagnosis includes not only the differentiation of different oral precancer and cancer stages, such as mild, moderate, and severe dysplasia, carcinoma in situ, early-stage squamous cell carcinoma, well-developed squamous cell carcinoma, oral submucous fibrosis, etc., but also the tracking of progressive regression of oral precancers after the photodynamic therapy and cryotherapy. Also, fast determination of excision safety margin in oral cancer surgery is implemented by high-resolution OCT scanning. Besides the standard OCT operation, the functions of optical Doppler tomography and polarization-sensitive scanning will be realized for enriching the scanning result. Effective indicators and standard procedures for building the golden rules for oral disease diagnosis and excision safety margin judgment will be identified. Depending on the application, the configurations of swept-source OCT and spectral-domain OCT will be used. In addition, blue light-emitting diodes of various wavelengths will be fabricated for testing the optimized autofluorescence excitation condition. For oral cancer and precancer application, the OCT-based technology has the advantages of deep mucosa scanning (as deep as 3 mm such that the features of mild dysplasia and oral submucous fibrosis can be observed and hence truly early diagnosis of oral precancer can be achieved), fast scanning and real-time diagnosis, noninvasive nature, biopsy free diagnosis, and relatively lower cost, etc. It is expected that after the study of this three-year project, the built golden rules and standard procedures of OCT scanning and image analysis can become mature enough for serving as the first step of lesion screening before biopsy and eventually replacing biopsy. The major involved faculty members of this three-branch-project research proposal include two engineering professors and two medical doctors.光學同調斷層掃瞄自體螢光口腔癌及癌前病變早期診斷光動力療法冷凍療法手術掃瞄探頭診斷黃金律optical coherence tomographyautofluorescenceoral cancer and precancerearly diagnosisphotodynamic therapycryotherapysurgeryscanning probediagnosis golden rule
