Non-invasive Skin Imaging Using Multiphoton Microscopy

The purpose of this pilot study is to employ multiphoton microscopy to non-invasively image
in-vivo pigmented and non-pigmented human skin for characterization of their morphologic and
functional features. Currently, there is no standard non-invasive method for skin imaging.

Researchers developed a non-invasive multi photon microscopy instrument to image normal and
lesional skin. Skin lesions can be imaged and evaluated using the multiphoton microscopy
device imaging method and compared to standard of care processed skin biopsies.

Any biopsies will be performed by the health care provider as a standard of care procedure.
The microscopy images obtained before biopsy will be compared with histopathology results.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Male or Female age 18 years of age or older

- Has diagnose with skin pigmented lesion

Exclusion Criteria:

- Minor and pregnant women

- Has no pigmented lesion
