Intraoperative Margin Assessment in Oral and Oropharyngeal Cancer Using Label-Free Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging and Machine Learning
Conclusion: The developed approach demonstrates the potential of FLIm for fast, reliable intraoperative margin assessment without the need for contrast agents. Significance: Fiber-based FLIm has the potential to be used as a diagnostic tool during cancer resection surgery, including Transoral Robotic -
urgery (TORS), helping ensure complete resections and improve the survival rate of oral and oropharyngeal cancer patients.
