- Abstract
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common form of eyelid skin cancer, and the standard technique for removal is excision with a predetermined marginal and postoperative histological analysis. Mohs surgery is an alternative technique that allows examination of the tumour margins by staged resection and simultaneous histopathological examination (Beaulieu et al. [2]). These results indicate that PA imaging could be used to delineate tumours in the periorbital region to achieve a more precise excision with better clearance, reducing the need for repeated excision.
