More than 25 years ago,my work with Kurniawan(now professor of anatomic pathology) was publish in the official publication of The International Society for Preventive Oncology: CancerDetection and Prevention,volume 4 numbers 1-4,1981.
Our work was on the usage of an acidic metachromatic dye named toluidine blue for study of the in vivo technique for laryngeal lesions .
Our experience suggest that in vivo staining may be a useful method for early detection of laryngeal cancer used as an adjunct to microlaryngoscopy.
Now it progress to a technique of using toluidine blue as a photosensitizer in photodynamic therapy used in cancer therapy.
