The purpose of this experiment is to establish a solid medical foundation for the successful development of non-invasive harmonic generation (HGM) microscopic slicing methods. The purpose of this new technology platform is to directly observe the nerve endings of nociceptors To enhance understanding of how neuropathies occur, persistence, and ease. This technique will assist in the diagnosis and prognosis of patients with neuralgia.
This study will be the skin tissue for the virtual slice object, the study intends to the following research:
The number of people enrolled in the Court is 170.
Between 20 and 90 years old, meet the following conditions, suitable for participation in this test:
This test can not be attended if:
Those who suffer from systemic infection or have been infected with the site by the physician assessment is not suitable for examination.

| harmonic generation (HGM) microscopic methods. | Diagnostic Test | a frequency-dependent optical microscopy system with a near-infrared light source with a wavelength of 1230 nm was used to detect the diseased site and normal skin.Use erbium-Jacob (Er-YAG) laser exfoliation. the participants need to lie down, wear goggles. The lens sucker device to help fix the skin examination site. Based on the experience of the past 118 subjects, the participants did not discomfort. The total time of the laser irradiation on the same skin is no more than 30 minutes, the maximum laser power is no more than 0.15 watts, irradiation in the skin of the total energy of the laser does not exceed 270 joules. After the experiment, the investigators immediately check the skin for the participants |
