All the normal structures identified with FFOCT (Figure 1(a, c, e)) and MPM images (Figure 2(a, c, e, g)) are shown in the corresponding h & e-stained slides (Figure 1(b, d, f) and Figure 2(b, d, f, h)) prepared from the same specimens. Nucleus usually appears dark with both FFOCT and MPM as no exogenous nuclear dye or contrast agents are used with these two techniques.

Similar to FFOCT and MPM, FCM has shown the capability of identi­fying normal lung parenchyma. However,unlike FFOCT and MPM images where the nucleus appears dark, nuclear staining from the acridine orange provides necessary contrast (bright nucleus) between the nuclear and cyto­plasmic areas of the cell (Figure 3).

FFOCT, MPM, and FCM can diagnose lung cancers in ex vivo tissue

The three main subtypes of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are ade­nocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and large-cell carcinoma. Lung adenocarcinoma is histologically heterogeneous with 5 distinct growth pat-

terns: lepidic, acinar, papillary, micropapillary, and solid patterns.
The lepidic growth pattern consists of a single-cell layer of atypical cells grow­ing along the alveolar septa.

(see Figure 4).Specifically,the adenocarcinoma with lep­idic growth pattern can be easily distinguishable from the adenocarcinomas with a solid growth pattern.
Additionally, due to a higher cellular resolution obtained with MPM, identification of atypical adenomatous hyperplasia (AAH), adenocarci­noma in situ (AIS), and invasive adenocarcinoma is feasible (Figure 5). An incidental AAH identified on MPM in tumor-free lung tissue is shown in Figure 5(a–b). Proliferation of atypical pneumocytes along the preexist­ing alveolar wall is highlighted with gaps between the cells (discontinuous

In addition, some free-floating tumor cells are visible in the airspace, the presence of which precludes its classification as AIS (Figure 5(a–b)).
Adenocarcinomas with an acinar pattern show duct-likestructures and irregularly angulated and often complex branching glands. Cohesive sheets of tumor cells with nest-like architecture or single-tumor cells are consid­ered solid growth patterns.

growth patterns are needed in order to assess the ability of MPM in differ­entiating these subtypes.
The papillary growth pattern is characterized by central fibrovascu­lar stromal cores, whereas the micropapillary growth pattern is defined by stroma-free micropapillae frequently present in the alveolar spaces. MPM shows adenocarcinoma with a papillary-predominant pattern (Fig­ure 5(i–j)) with clear papillary projections composed of cuboidal to colum­nar cells (autofluorescence signal from cell cytoplasm; color-coded green), which line collagen-rich fibrovascular cores (SHG s ignal; color-coded red). Micropapillary adenocarcinoma (Figure 5(k–l)), on the other hand, shows small papillary clusters of malignant cells (autofluorescence signal from cell cytoplasm; color-coded green) within the airspace, with no true fibrovascular cores. Of note, MPM imaging allows for a clear visual dis­tinction between the papillary and micropapillary growth patterns, which have important prognostic implications. The micropapillary subtype is considered to be poorly differentiated and has been associated with a worse prognosis.
Squamous-cell carcinoma (SCC), the second most common non­small-cell carcinoma, accounts for about 30% of lung cancers. They typ­ically occur centrally close to large airways and by H&E are composed of sheets or islands of large polygonal cells with keratinization (in the more differentiated forms) and intercellular bridges. Figure 6 shows high­magnification MPM images from the tumor in a patient with a diagnosis of SCC. Figure6(a–b) demonstrate sheets ofmalignant cells (autofluorescence signal from cell cytoplasm; color-coded green) with a complete loss of the normal architecture of the lung parenchyma. Tumor cells are arranged in a pavement-like fashion which is characteristicof SCC. An increased amount of stroma (SHG signal; color-coded red) and mononuclear inflammatory cells (autofluorescence signal; color-coded green) surrounding the tumor were also noted (Figure 6(a), inset). Review of the H&E (Figure 6(b)) confirmed a correct diagnosis of SCC. Figure 6(c) and (d) show images from the tumor (autofluorescence signal from cell cytoplasm; color-coded green) of another subject, also diagnosed with SCC on H&E. However, it was misdiagnosed as adenocarcinoma on MPM, primarily due to the central necrosis in the tumor nest which was misinterpreted as gland formation.

When the images were reanalyzed with knowledge of the SCC diagnosis, the pavement-like arrangement of cells was identified.
Pleural invasion is an important prognostic factor that is critical to identify lung cancer staging

The current TNM staging system upgrades lung cancer to a T2 if visceral pleural invasion is present. MPM imaging clearly outlinesvisceral pleura (Figure 2(a), inset) due to its rich SHG signal (color-coded red) originating from collagen I/III and could potentially be useful to detect visceral pleural invasion.

mas into (1) well-differentiated adenocarcinomas with lepidic-predominant patterns, (2) moderately differentiated adenocarcinomas with acinar­predominant patterns, and (3) poorly differentiated adenocarcinomas with solid-predominant patterns. Lepidic-predominant lung tumors exhibited well-preservedlung architecture with slight alveolar septal thickening from collagen deposition(Figure 7 (a–c)).In contrast, both acinar (Figure 7(d–f)) and solid-predominant (Figure 7 (g–i)) patterns showed marked increasesin collagen content, with significantly more collagen in s olid pattern tumors. The presence of collagen was confirmed using Masson trichrome stain (Figure 7(c, f, and i). A significant correlation was identified between tumor differentiation and the amount of tumor-associatedcollagen, with both well and moderately differentiated tumors exhibiting less fibrosis compared to poorly differentiated tumors ( P = .009 and 0.03, respectively).
FCM has been shown to identify features of adenocarcinoma (n = 7) and squamous cell carcinoma (n = 2) in a study using a small sample size (Figure 8). FCM images matched with the corresponding H&E tissue sections in this study.

In vivo application of optical imaging techniques in normal human lung and lung cancer

The use of OCT to assess normal and diseased lung tissue in vivo will have high clinical impact. To date, however, there are few published in vivo studies. A recent study has shown that combining near infrared-based OCT with bronchoscopy results in the generation of highly detailed images of the normal airway wall with histological correlation. 5 patients with biopsy-proven lung cancer underwent bronchoscopy with in vivo OCT imaging. Airway wall layer (mucosa, submucosa, and total wall areas) perimeters of 13 airways from 5 patients were evaluated and calculated by two independent observers. The ex vivo OCT imaging and histology from the resected lung specimen were compared with the in vivo imaging. In total, 51 ex vivo OCT images were matched with 39 in vivo

thoracic lymph nodes with and without known cancer. Based on match­ing histology, OCT successfully distinguished metastatic carcinoma in 6 of the 26 lymph nodes and also identified several normal structures including blood vessels, adjacent airway wall, lymphoid follicles, adipose tissue, and histiocytes. The study proposed OCT as a useful guide to transbronchial needle aspiration lymph node sampling as an adjunct diagnostic tool to endobronchial ultrasound.
Likewise, pCLE miniprobes measuring 0.6 mm (CholangioFlex for apical and posterior segments of the upper lobes) and 1.4mm (AlveoFlex for other segments) have been used to evaluate malignant solitary pul­monary nodules (SPNs) in all lobes of the human lung.

In this pilot study, 48 patients with malignant SPN were imaged using endobronchial ultra­sound coupled with pCLE probes. Normal alveolar network and its cells, elastin fibers, and blood vessels were readily identified. All the SPNs were successfully explored with either one of the probes. In 30 pCLE explo­rations, a specific solid pattern in the SPN correlated with the diagnosis of lung cancer, mainly pulmonary adenocarcinoma. An overall diagnos­tic accuracy of 79.2% was found for lung cancer detection using pCLE miniprobes.

Conclusion

Optical biopsy techniques, such as FFOCT and MPM, facilitate real-time visualization of tissue at cellular resolution without the need to excise, pro­cess, section, or stain tissue. Other optical biopsy techniques have been used to evaluate human lung pathology in vivo, such as optical coher­ence tomography, confocal endomicroscopy, and endocytoscopy. Optical coherence tomography, the most advanced of those technologies, is an interference-basedoptical imaging technique, similar, in principle, to ultra­sound imaging. Current, commercial optical coherence tomography sys­tems have lateral resolutions of 10–15µm, with a depth of imaging of 1 mm or more. Thus, although that technique is good at rapidly generat­ing three-dimensional image volumes that reflect different layers of tissue components (e.g. cells and connective tissue), the image resolution (similar to the 34x objective of a histology microscope) is typically not sufficient
