Background: Ex vivo confocal microscopy using fusion mode and digital staining (EVCM) scans unfixed fresh tissue and produces rapidly digitally stained images of very similar quality to classical pathology.

Objectives: The objective of the study was to assess diagnostic accuracy of EVCM versus traditional histopathological examination for diagnosing and subtyping clinically suspicious lesions of BCC in 3-mm fresh and nonfixed punch biopsies.
