Purpose

Laser treatment of Basal cell carcinoma

Detailed Description

      The purpose of this pilot study is to examine the treatment of superficial basal cell
      carcinoma (BCC) with laser technology. The laser modality that we plan to use is the
      long-pulse Nd:YAG 1064nm laser, which is a non-ablative laser already shown to effectively
      treat BCC.
