Official Title: Smartphone Confocal Microscopy for Diagnosing Kaposi's Sarcoma

Brief Summary: The investigators propose to evaluate a novel diagnostic approach for Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) that may be eventually deployed with portable, point-of-care techniques. This approach features confocal microscopy. The investigators will compare this new approach with the gold standard of histology from a traditional skin punch biopsy (which is standard of care) to determine the sensitivity and specificity of portable confocal microscopy in diagnosing KS.
