Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Age ≥ 18 years
  • Participant must understand the nature of this study and provide written consent prior to receiving any study-related procedure.
  • Participant must be clinically eligible for Mohs surgery as determined by their referring dermatologist and the Mohs surgeon.
  • The participant must have a BCC with superficial histology or a BCC with multiple histological features that also include superficial histology, which is appropriate for Mohs surgery.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Known or reported allergy to mineral oil, the optical agent used during imaging.
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
  • . Any condition which in the investigator's opinion deems the subject an unsuitable candidate to undergo imaging procedure.
  • Unwilling or unable to follow protocol requirements

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of cases with fully evaluable images

    cases were the image evaluator can assess the margins based on image quality

    Time frame: 1.5 years

Secondary outcomes

  1. Patient interest in study

    Will be measured by documenting the number of patients offered study participation and the number choosing to participate in the study

    Time frame: 1.5 years

  2. Patients overall experience

    Collect a 3-question questionnaire to document patients experience.

    Time frame: one office visit - immediately after imaging procedure

  3. Determine LC-OCT imaging's impact on surgical workflow

    Will be assessed by results of imaging assessment questionnaire given to surgeon

    Time frame: To be filled out immediately after finishing Mohs procedure

  4. Accuracy of LC-OCT findings

    Will be evaluated by Comparing LC-OCT findings with frozen section histopathological results

    Time frame: 1.5 years

  5. Accuracy of LC-OCT in detectng location of tumor

    will be evaluated by comparing the location of the LC-OCT reported margin positivity to the Mohs map

    Time frame: 1.5 years

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started Dec 2025 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Jun 2027, 18 months after the start.

Of 50 interventional studies with no phase under Carcinoma, Basal Cell, half reached primary completion within 31 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 22 and three quarters within 64. This study's planned 18 months is below that.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Sep 24, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
