Fluorescence-Guided Surgery
Surgical resection of cancer remains an important treatment modality. Despite advances in preoperative imaging, surgery itself is primarily guided by the surgeon's ability to locate pathology with conventional white light imaging. Fluorescence-guided surgery (FGS) can be used to define tumor location and margins during the procedure. Intraoperative visualization of tumors may not only allow mor...
متن کاملFluorescence-guided surgery: the quest for precision
The ever-mounting pressure on surgeons to improve efficacy, safety and financial outcomes of their work, has driven them, and the industry, to seek ways for enhancing operative precision. We certainly need to delineate, beyond doubt, lesions that are supposed to be completely removed, as well as structures that ought to be preserved. One way to achieve this goal is to augment visualization at s...
متن کاملOncologic Procedures Amenable to Fluorescence-guided Surgery.
OBJECTIVE Although fluorescence imaging is being applied to a wide range of cancers, it remains unclear which disease populations will benefit greatest. Therefore, we review the potential of this technology to improve outcomes in surgical oncology with attention to the various surgical procedures while exploring trial endpoints that may be optimal for each tumor type. BACKGROUND For many tumo...
متن کاملCompact instrument for fluorescence image-guided surgery.
Fluorescence image-guided surgery (FIGS) is an emerging technique in oncology, neurology, and cardiology. To adapt intraoperative imaging for various surgical applications, increasingly flexible and compact FIGS instruments are necessary. We present a compact, portable FIGS system and demonstrate its use in cardiovascular mapping in a preclinical model of myocardial ischemia. Our system uses fi...
متن کاملAdvances in laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer: fluorescence- guided surgery
Laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer (CRC) has been thoroughly investigated in a multitude of studies and has proved to have equivalent oncologic outcomes to open surgery, yet with the advantages of minimal tissue trauma, shorter hospital stay and quicker recovery. Recent advances in laparoscopic surgical treatment of CRC have been introduced in attempt to enhance the technique and improv...
