Endoscopic tissue time machine
Head and neck cancers (HNC), which include malignancies of the oral cavity, tonsils, nasopharynx, and larynx, are life-threatening, particularly when diagnosed in advanced stages. Effective management requires early detection and continuous monitoring to enable earliest possible intervention of high-risk precancerous lesions. Unfortunately, current endoscopic techniques are limited in their ability to provide accurate predictions of disease trajectories. The overarching goal of EPIC is to develop a new endoscopic technology to predict HNC tissue state trajectory with the fidelity needed to intervene in the present – an “endoscopic tissue time machine”. We will create a miniaturized 2.0 mm…
