Visualization method reveals cutaneous larva migrans in atypical cases, indicating high-res, non-invasive benefits over conventional imaging.
We present the first direct in vivo visualization of a cutaneous larva migrans using LC-OCT, revealing the segmented larval body and peri-larval vesicle with near-histological precision. This high-resolution, non-invasive technique enabled confident diagnosis in an atypical case, highlighting its added value over conventional imaging methods in parasitic dermatoses.
