Compact 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 کاملFluorescence-guided resection of gliomas.
INTRODUCTION Malignant gliomas remain associated with a poor prognosis despite both surgical treatment and radiochemotherapy.Previous studies have shown that complete resection of contrast-enhancing tumours is achieved in less than 20-30% of patients. 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) is a pro-drug that leads to accumulation of fluorescent protoporphyrins in malignant gliomas. The fluorescence can ...
متن کاملFluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy for brain tumor image-guided surgery.
We demonstrate for the first time the application of an endoscopic fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) system to the intraoperative diagnosis of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). The clinically compatible FLIM prototype integrates a gated (down to 0.2 ns) intensifier imaging system with a fiber-bundle (fiber image guide of 0.5 mm diameter, 10,000 fibers with a gradient index lens objec...
متن کاملFluorescence-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 کاملAuditory alert system for fluorescence-guided resection of gliomas.
Protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) fluorescence-guided brain tumor resection using 5-aminolevulinic acid labeling is one of the most valuable tools available to determine the extent of glioma infiltration, but requires repeated spectroscopic evaluation of the tissue. The present method informs the surgeon of residual tumor in real time using spectrum analysis of PPIX fluorescence and an audible alert sys...
