Light imaging to look at healthy tissue
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This study tests a new special camera that shines a safe light on the skin to take detailed pictures of tissue, like the breast, without surgery. It aims to see how well this technique works in healthy people, which could help doctors in the future.
