使用Oralfindser有什么好处？

Oralfindser使用荧光技术能够及早检测可疑或可能癌变的病变。大家在所有检查和清洁中都使用它，作为我们口腔粘膜筛查的一部分。

使用Oralfindser有什么好处？

虽然我们过去总是用肉眼检查，但 Oralfindser可以更快地识别任何可疑部分·。这是识别潜在问题的更有效方法。口腔癌具有相当大的侵袭性，因此尽早发现它很重要。当它用肉眼看到时，它通常已经非常**了，存活率也下降了。

该设备看起来像一个小手电筒，您戴着特殊颜色的荧光观察眼镜。当您将Oralfindser手电筒照射在口腔粘膜表面时，口腔粘膜表面看起来是绿色的。任何看起来深棕色或黑色的部位都是可疑的，旧需要进一步调查。如果我看到可疑部位，通常建议拍一张照片并制作一张图表，说明它的位置和大小。建议患者两周后复诊，如果仍然可见，建议做口腔病理学分析。

当您向患者讲述发现的问题时，请务必谨慎用语。我们通常不使用“癌症”这个词，因为在这一点上我们不能 100% 确定。

This Oralfindser uses a fluorescent light for the early detection of lesions that are suspicious or that could be potentially cancerous. We use it with all of our check-up and cleans as part of our oral mucosal screening.

What's good about it？

While we always checked with the naked eye in the past, the Oralfindser can identify anything suspicious much sooner. It's a much more effective way to identify potential problems. Oral cancer is fairly aggressive so it‘s important to catch it as early as possible. By the time it's visible to the naked eye, it's generally pretty far advanced and survival rates come down.

The device looks like a small torch and you wear specially coloured glasses. When you shine it over the mucosal surfaces, the light looks green. Anything that looks dark brown or black is suspicious and requires further investigation. If I find anything, I take a photo and create a diagram of where it was positioned and its size. We get the patient back two weeks later and if it‘s still visible, they get referred to an oral pathologist.

It's important to be careful with your language when you announce a problem to the patient. We generally don't use the term 'cancer' because we aren't 100 per cent certain at this point.
