View the webinar playback as we present multiple patient cases using a new FDA-cleared intraoperative specimen imaging technology for real-time visualization of excised tissue and shaved margins with surgeons from three prestigious institutions involved in Perimeter’s clinical trials.
This webinar provides a deeper dive on Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) – an established, ultra-high-resolution technology used in cardiology, dermatology, and ophthalmology – and correlates OCT images to histopathology.
Presentation Highlights:
- Review of OCT technology, offering 10X resolution of ultrasound and X-ray to visualize excised tissues and margins at the cellular level
- Case reviews by breast surgeons showing practical application in their cancer patient population
- Correlation of OCT images to histopathology
