Abstract

Multispectral and lifetime imaging systems have been used to detect skin cancer in humans after the topical application of 8-aminolevulinie acid ointment. Both systems allowed a clear detection of tumors based either on spectral or on temporal differences between the fluorescence signals in the neoplasia and in the healthy tissues nearby.
