Zila's Product Profile

Exam: Step by Step

  • Rinse mouth with acetic pre-rinse to disrupt the glycoprotein barrier of mucosal surfaces for improved visualization of abnormal tissue
  • Activate ViziLite & insert into holder (Both single use, disposable)
  • Dim exam room lights or shade subject area
  • Examine the oral cavity using ViziLite
  • Look for tissue that appears white

    Why ViziLite Technology Works
    The density of the nuclear content and mitochondrial matrix of cancer cells is typically greater than normal cells. This increased molecular density is associated with the increased proliferative rate and metabolic activity of cancer cells.

  • ViziLite™ enhances the examiner's ability to see differences in the nuclear/cytoplasmic ratio
  • At the cellular level, cytoplasm absorbs ViziLite and the nucleus reflects ViziLite and appears white
  • The density of the nucleus increases as the cell becomes more abnormal

    A = Normal epithelium absorbs ViziLite; appears dark
    B = Abnormal epithelium reflects ViziLite; appears white
