This monograph equips clinicians with the knowledge required to
detect oral cancer at the earliest possible stage while
simultaneously inspiring researchers to work on novel methods of
detection. All the methods employed in the oral cancer context are
considered, from simple ones like oral screening to more complex
emerging optical methods and biomarker identification strategies.
Individual chapters focus on conventional oral screening and
application of vital stains, optical methods like white light based
fluorescence-reflectance imaging, narrow band imaging,
direct-oral-microscopy, and more advanced methods like optical
coherence tomography, an in-vivo optical biopsy technique, and
photo-acoustic imaging that allows visualization of deeper tissue
changes. Novel electrical methods like bio-impedance assessment,
occult biophysical methods like crystallization test, and the most
promising salivary biomarkers and point-of-care opportunities are
covered. Helpful information is also provided on essential topics
including, oral potentially malignant disorders, biological aspects
and molecular mechanisms underlying oral cancer progression, global
epidemiology, concept of diagnostic delays, traditional imaging,
and classic histopathology and microscopic features. The newer
techniques are currently of active research interest, and can soon
become powerful chair-side tools with potential to reduce
diagnostic delays and improve survival.
