Summary
Cancer is a complex disease; its different causes and types have a strong impact on patient treatment and prognosis. To improve understanding of the disease, its causes and progression, the investigators will develop a simple, cost-effective system for continuous control of mucosal lesions with non-invasive brush biopsy that can be managed in primary dental care, as an alternative to tissue biopsy in order to reduce the number of oral cavity cancers.
