Principle of RCM Imaging
RCM uses optical scanning confocal technology:
- A low-energy laser focuses on specific skin layers
- Light is backscattered from tissue structures
- Signal passes through a pinhole to the detector
Only light from the focal plane is captured → creates a clear image
Out-of-focus light is rejected
Image contrast depends on refractive index differences between tissues
Result:
- In vivo
- Non-invasive
- Real-time
- Dynamic imaging at cellular level
Clinical Applications
- Lesion border definition
- Differentiation of benign vs malignant tumors
- Pre/post treatment evaluation (e.g. laser procedures)
- Disease monitoring
