What is the VELscope and How Does the VELscope Work?
The VELscope is a device that is used as an adjunct to the Comprehensive Oral Examination (COE), aiding clinicians in visualizing oral mucosal abnormalities, including infections, trauma, oral cancer and pre-cancerous dysplasia. We often are asked about the technology behind the VELscope and the evidence for its efficacy as an adjunctive oral screening tool. In this article, we will take a look at the VELscope device, how the VELscope works via the principle of tissue fluorescence and what encompasses a typical VELscope examination.
