Role of a Novel Device, “DrOroscope,” in the Early Diagnosis of Oral Potentially Malignant Disorders and Dysplasia – A Case Series

Early identification of oral cancer is essential for increasing survival rates and improving the quality of life after treatment. Specialized diagnostic tools such as VELscope, ViziLite, Identafi, and DrOroscope have been created to precisely evaluate the lesions and minimize morbidity. The DrOroscope is a small, easily transportable, and cost-effective diagnostic tool created for the analysis of different premalignant and malignant diseases without requiring invasive methods. In the present case series, a DrOroscope was used. The case series includes oral submucous fibrosis with and without dysplasia and erythroplakia. The image analyses given by the DrOroscope were concordant with the histopathological reports. The DrOroscope can be used as reliable noninvasive supplemental tool along with the comprehensive oral examination in diagnosing potentially malignant disorders, dysplasias, and malignancies.
