Optical Characterization and Multi-modality, Multi-scale Modeling of Human Skin Applied to Cancer Diagnosis.
Skin carcinomas are the most commonly diagnosed cancers in fair-skinned populations, for example in France, Western Europe, and North America in particular. The OpticSkin project will build and make available to the general public and the scientific and medical community a histological and optical spectroscopic database of healthy, precancerous, and cancerous human skin in terms of absorption, elastic and inelastic scattering (Raman), steady-state and time-resolved autofluorescence, and polarization. The aim is to identify spectroscopic signatures that will be useful for diagnosis.
