[Changes in the optical characteristics of the skin of patients with basal cell carcinoma].
Skin optical characteristics were investigated in connection with large-size tumors and inflammatory infiltrates in 54 patients suffering from basal cell carcinoma. It was found that large size of tumor involves higher light absorption in the skin, lower light conduction and increased photoluminescence. Also, cutaneous tissues look brighter more often when light passes through them. Inflammation in foci of lesions also involves higher light conduction and photoluminescence in the skin.
