Filter by:This research study aims to understand whether visual and written education on wound appearance can improve patients' experience and understanding of what their wound will look like following dermatologic surgery.
This study compares two types of 3D-printed skin bolus (rigid and flexible) used to optimize the treatment of tumors/cancers involving the skin. Each patient will have both types of bolus made, with each will be used on alternating days. The goal is to determine if one type of bolus provides a better fit and thus radiotherapy plan, the ease of use of each type of bolus, and patient reported feedback.
Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) followed by skin reconstruction has been widely accepted for treatment of many skin cancers. To further characterize the trends in MMS and reconstruction for skin cancer, a retrospective analysis will be performed using the Optum© Clinformatics® DataMart de-identified commercial claims database from 2001-2016. The findings may provide critical data for future prospective studies in skin cancer treatments.
This study seeks to correlate microbial sequencing data from a punch biopsy in patients with skin cancer both melanoma and non-melanoma.
The purpose of this study is to determine if magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or positron emission tomography (PET) imaging can be used to help doctors determine how much oxygen a tumor is getting. Hypoxyprobe will be used to determine the levels of oxygen post-surgery in the current study. If the study is successful, then imaging can be used to determine a tumor's oxygen status even in patients who are not getting surgery. Investigators want to find out how much oxygen is in the participants tumor based on how much pimo is present, and correlate this with the results of their MRI and 18F-fluoromisonidazole (FMISO) PET scan. This study is also testing the investigational radioactive substance known as FMISO. FMISO is used during PET scans to help doctors see how much oxygen a tumor is getting. Participants might be asked to participate in an optional PET scan using FMISO.
The goal of this study is to test a protocol that uses clinical pictures, confocal reflectance microscopy images and dermoscopic information in a telemedicine platform. This protocol will test the technologies and diagnostic performance of dermoscopy and confocal reflectance microscopy in a randomized prospective multicenter study in five different centers in Europe.
