Methods and systems related to detecting disease, such as oral cancer, in a patient, using a viewing scope to investigate a patient's tissues. The systems and methods excite and detect fluorescence from the tissue. The fluorescence can then be evaluated, and the possibility of certain diseases such as cancer can be determined. The devices include an ambient light management system (ALMS, often referred to as a "vestibular device") that manages background light in the health practitioner's office. This device can be used with scope systems for fluorescence based detection of abnormal tissue.

L'invention concerne des procédés et des systèmes destinés à détecter une maladie, notamment un cancer buccal, chez un patient, au moyen d'un viseur permettant d'examiner les tissus d'un patient. Ces systèmes et ces procédés excitent et détectent la fluorescence des tissus. Cette fluorescence peut ensuite être évaluée, et la possibilité de certaines maladies telles que le cancer peuvent être déterminées. Ces dispositifs comprennent un système de gestion de lumière ambiante (ALMS, souvent appelé "dispositif vestibulaire") qui gère l'éclairage de fond dans un cabinet de praticiens de la santé. Ce dispositif peut être utilisé avec des systèmes de viseur afin de détecter par fluorescence des tissus anormaux.
