Abstract

Multiphoton microscopy (MPM) can provide sub-micron resolution images of living tissues in their native environment with contrast from multiple modalities, including second harmonic generation (SHG) and two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF). Recent advances of MPM in clinical skin imaging demonstrated the unique potential of this technology as a label-free research and clinical tool for a broad area of applications such as melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancer detection, monitoring pigmentary skin disorders, characterizing keratinocyte metabolism, etc. In this contribution we demonstrate the ability of this microscope to provide sub-micrometer resolution ex-vivo images of large areas of skin tissue (up to 5x5 mm2) in <1 minute. We demonstrate the importance of high-speed, high-resolution mesoscopic imaging on cancerous skin tissues that present heterogeneous morphology to show the ability of the instrument to capture both benign and malignant areas of the lesion.
