Oral cancer affects thousands of lives every year in the United States alone. The survival rate is not high if the disease is caught late. As technology advances, it will be much easier to catch these kinds of cancers earlier. Take the VELscope Mantis for instance: it is an advanced oral cancer screening system with polarized, surgical, and fluorescence light modes to enable catching abnormalities. Clinicians will be able to easily switch modes to see changes in “tissue fluorescence and reflectance that may signal early-stage issues.”
The Mantis has a wide field of view. It also has image filtering for brighter images. You can mount your phone to capture images during screening. This device has a rechargeable design. It requires no dyes and invasive procedures to work.
