Confocal reflectance microscopy (CRM) is an optical method of imaging tissue noninvasively without the need for fixation, sectioning, and staining as in standard histopathologic analysis. Image contrast is determined by natural differences in refractive indices of organelles and other subcellular structures within the tissues. Gray-scale images are displayed in real time on a video monitor and represent horizontal (en face) optical sections through the tissue. We hypothesized that CRM is capable of discerning histologic characteristics of different tissues in the head and neck.
