In the researchers' words
This study aims at demonstrating the feasibility of probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (pCLE) and needle-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (nCLE). Contraindications for resection surgery may sometimes be missed during exploratory surgical procedures. That may lead to an incomplete thus useless surgery and delay the right treatment. The objectives of this study are to improve the detection of cancer extension during exploratory procedures and to guide resection to ensure clear margins.
