Study Summary

This trial tests a new microscope to see if it can accurately detect skin cancer during surgery.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for individuals who can read and understand a consent form and are currently undergoing Mohs surgery for basal cell carcinoma (BCC) at the location where the study is being conducted.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study is testing two photon fluorescence microscopy to see if it's as good as the standard frozen section histology in identifying cancerous tissue during Mohs surgery for BCC.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this trial involves imaging with two photon microscopy, there are no direct side effects from drugs or interventions. The procedure may involve typical risks associated with clinical imaging.
