Near-infrared-guided Thoracoscopic Surgery and Future Near-infrared Targets
Vet Clin North Am Small Anim Pract. 2024 Mar 19:S0195-5616(24)00012-3. doi: 10.1016/j.cvsm.2024.02.011. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIntraoperative near-infrared fluorescence imaging allows for real time, noninvasive visualization of anatomic structures (blood vessels, lymphatic vessels) or diseased states (cancer, inflammation). This technique is easily adapted to thoracoscopy and has allowed for improved detection of lung tumors and other various cancers, thoracic lymphatics, and cardiothoracic vasculature.PMID:38508966 | DOI:10.1016/j.cvsm.2024.02.011
