A Study of Noninvasive Methods to Evaluate Skin and Mucosal Conditions

January 3, 2024 updated by: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center

Noninvasive Assessment of Muco-cutaneous Lesions In Vivo

The purpose of this study is to find out whether using noninvasive methods to study the appearance of lesions can improve diagnostic accuracy before a biopsy is required and help guide treatment planning. The database created to store these images is called an Image Repository, and it will be used to support clinical practice, teaching and training, and future research.The High-resolution OCT (Apollo Medical Optics) device ApolloVue® S100 Image System (medical device Class II) can provide both cross-sectional and en-face images with cellular information.

Study Population

For this study, we anticipate to recruit ~5000 participants over a period of 7 years. Of this, ~4000 will be patients with a muco-cutaneous lesion and ~1000 will be volunteers.

Patients in the Dermatology, Clinical Immunology Services, Pediatrics, Bone Marrow Transplant, Dental, and Radiation Oncology departments who have a muco-cutaneous lesion/process amenable to imaging with one or more of the available noninvasive devices will be offered the opportunity to participate in the study. In addition to patients and volunteers, MSK clinicians will be recruited to the study via clinician verbal informed consent.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • All ages
  • Patients with a muco-cutaneous lesion(s) amenable to imaging by non-invasive tools
  • Healthy volunteer subjects
  • Ability to give informed consent or in the case of pediatric patients, assent and consent from the parent/guardian

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Allergy or intolerance to ultrasound gel or mineral oil used for imaging
  • Patients who are not able to comply with imaging procedure

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Participants with muco-cutaneous lesions
Participants will have muco-cutaneous lesions for non-invasive evaluation (including normal skin or mucosa and benign lesions) and will be identified by their physicians or fellows during routine clinical care.
The skin lesion will be imaged before application of alcohol (spray/wipe) and after application of alcohol (spray/wipe). The dermatoscope/camera with dermoscopy imaging capabilities, including but not limited to VEOS® SLR (Canfield Scientific, Inc.), will be placed on/near the area(s) of interest. Images will be captured in polarized and/or nonpolarized modes and contact and/or non-contact modes.
Participants will stand in the center of an imaging station consisting of 92 high-resolution cameras. Image capture by all cameras will occur simultaneously, (approx. 3 milliseconds). Within a few minutes, specialized software will process and assemble the images into a 3D avatar - a digital model of the patient's skin - showing all his or her lesions.

  • 3D TBP
CM imaging (Vivascope®, Caliber Imaging and Diagnostics, Rochester, NY) will be performed using an arm-mounted CM device (Vivascope1500, Caliber I.D., Inc.) or using a handheld CM device (Vivascope3000, Caliber I.D., Inc.).
Other Names:
  • CM
OCT subsurface imaging shows structural-level morphology (epidermal and dermal layers) in skin down to the deeper reticular dermis.
Other Names:
  • OCT imaging
US imaging allows assessment of depth, Doppler vascular imaging, and elastography features of skin lesions.
Other Names:
  • US
Hyperspectral imaging shows biochemical information regarding the distribution of skin melanin and hemoglobin50. SkinSpect™ is a form of a hyperspectral dermatoscope.
Electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measures skin's resistance to the flow of alternating electric currents to differentiate benign and malignant lesions.
Other Names:
  • EIS
Clinical and dermoscopy self-imaging by patients can be accomplished using mobile phone technology. In the case of dermoscopy, this requires a small dermatoscope attachment for the phone.
