Abstract
in English, French

The development of in vivo skin imaging technologies has been booming for several decades. Their advantages are indisputable, especially as they are non-invasive. Their place is already well established in onco-dermatology and it is just a question of time for them to be used with success in other fields of dermatology, including pediatric dermatology. In this paper we will discuss 3 of these skin imaging techniques used in dermatology at the CHUV, including Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), Reflectance Confocal Microscopy (RCM) and the most recent: Line-field Confocal Optical Coherence Tomography (LC-OCT).

Le développement de technologies d’imagerie cutanée in vivo est en plein essor depuis plusieurs dizaines d’années. Leurs avantages sont indéniables compte tenu notamment de leur caractère non invasif. Leur place est déjà bien établie en onco-dermatologie et leur utilité est également prometteuse dans beaucoup de domaines en dermatologie, y compris en dermatologie pédiatrique. Nous allons détailler ici trois de ces techniques utilisées en dermatologie au CHUV, à savoir la tomographie en cohérence optique (OCT), la microscopie confocale par réflectance (MCR) et la plus récente: la tomographie en cohérence optique confocale en champ linéaire (LC-OCT).
