DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of the research is to use a pump-probe microscopy system to find statistically significant variations between melanomas that did and did not develop metastases. This information will be used to develop automated classification algorithms to find robust molecular and structural features with strong predictive power. These insights will enable a retrospective study of melanoma and sentinel node biopsies, that can be used to validate the findings. By the end of the project, it is expected that there will be statistically significant evidence that pump-probe microscopy can substantially improve the diagnostic accuracy of histopathology.

描述（由申请人提供）：该研究的目标是使用泵探针显微镜系统来发现发生和未发生转移的黑色素瘤之间在统计上显着的差异。这些信息将用于开发自动分类算法，以找到具有强大预测能力的稳健分子和结构特征。这些见解将使黑色素瘤和前哨淋巴结活检的回顾性研究成为可能，可用于验证研究结果。到项目结束时，预计将有统计上显着的证据表明泵探针显微镜可以大大提高组织病理学的诊断准确性。
