Abstract
HyperSpectral Imaging (HSI) technology enables quantitative tissue analyses beyond the limitations of the human eye. Thus, it serves as a new diagnostic tool for optical properties of diverse tissues. In contrast to other intraoperative imaging methods, HSI is contactless, noninvasive, and the administration of a contrast medium is not necessary. The duration of measurements takes only a few seconds and the surgical procedure is only marginally disturbed. Preliminary HSI applications in visceral surgery are promising with the potential of optimized outcomes. Current concepts, possibilities and new perspectives regarding HSI technology together with its limitations are discussed in this article.
