A palm-sized high-sensitivity near-infrared fluorescence imager for laparotomy surgery

Different experiments have been performed to determine its main characteristics, both on the illumination and imaging sides. The device has been tested for fluorescent molecular probe imaging in preclinical procedures, to prove its ability to be used in cancer nodule detection during surgery. This system is now CE certified for clinical procedures and Indocyanine Green imaging has been performed during clinical investigations: lymphedema and surgical resection of liver metastases of colorectal cancers.
