Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Quantitative agreement between clear margin distance on TPFM and conventional paraffin embedded histology

    The distance from the furthest extent of the tumor to the nearest surgical margin will be measured on both TPFM and conventional paraffin histology and the numerical difference calculated.

    Upon receipt of postoperative pathology slides, typically 2-4 weeks post surgery

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Overall agreement on margin status

    Upon receipt of postoperative pathology slides, typically 2-4 weeks post surgery

Study Arms (1)

TPFM imaging of surgical margins

EXPERIMENTAL

Excised tissue will be imaged with TPFM to determine the distance from tumor to nearest inked margin.

Device: Two photon fluorescence microscopy imaging

Interventions

Excised tissues will be imaged with two photon fluorescence microscopy prior to submission for histological processing.

TPFM imaging of surgical margins
