Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • pCLE classification and scoring system

    Evaluation of pCLE diagnostic performance for the diagnosis of NPC when associated with other diagnostic information.

    3 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • the quantitative image analysis

    3 months

Study Arms (3)

normal mucosa

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Flat and relatively uniform polygonal epithelial cells with alternating dark and light bands were noted in pCLE images of normal mucosa after intravenous injecting 10% fluorescein.

Diagnostic Test: 10% fluorescein

lymphoid hyperplasia

EXPERIMENTAL

An unorganized tissue architecture, irregular cells (difference of cell shape, color and size), slightly intensified fluorescein leakage, and vessels not assessable were found in the lymphoid hyperplasia of nasopharyngeal mucosa after intravenous injecting 10% fluorescein..

Diagnostic Test: 10% fluorescein

nasopharyngeal carcinoma

EXPERIMENTAL

pCLE images of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, which was associated with crowded unorganized tissue architecture (a dark-gray background without identification of mucosal structures), irregular cells like cell clusters, amplified fluorescein leakage, and irregular vessels changes after intravenous injecting 10% fluorescein.

Diagnostic Test: 10% fluorescein

Interventions

10% fluoresceinDIAGNOSTIC_TEST

The nasopharyngeal lesions were first identified endoscopically by nasal endoscope. Then, an initial dose of 0.5 mL prior to the examination with a maximum dose of 2.5 mL of 10% fluorescein (IV; Akorn Inc, Lake Forest, Illinois, USA) during the measurement procedure was defined according to the experiences of workgroup in the gastrointestinal tract.
