A Handheld β+ Probe for Intra-Operative Detection of Radiotracers
A handheld probe for direct positron detection based on scintillators coupled to silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) is presented in this paper. The battery-powered system is optimised for intra-operative use. It is fully sterilisable and wirelessly connected to a PC running a graphical user interface. Successful pilot clinical trials have shown the use in oncological surgery.
متن کاملIntra-operative Ischemia Sensing Surgical Instruments
Surgical techniques rely heavily on adequate visualization of target anatomy. Particularly in laparoscopic and robotic laparoscopic surgery, the operative anatomy and the general view of the operative field is removed from the surgeon’s direct vision. Manipulation of peripheral anatomy (i.e. retraction) may lead to ischemia, infarction, and mechanical disruption. The primary goal of our researc...
متن کاملW3: Intra-Operative Imaging and Brain Pathology
The Intraoperative MRI is of great importance in the surgical removal of gliomas or cranial base tumors. However, the sole use of a intraoperative MRI is problematic, so that a dual system has been developed to optimize the utilization of the equipment, which can be used both for neurosurgical patients and for outpatient or stationary Patients. Within the framework of the new head Center at the...
متن کاملBeam characteristics and leakage assessment of an in-house intra-operative electron applicator system
Background: Intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) technique is used to treat a surgically exposed tumor or tumor bed in the treatment of locally advanced intraabdominal, retroperitoneal, pelvic, thoracic, breast and soft tissue tumors. One way to perform IORT is to use an existing linac and modify the treatment head using an applicator system. In this study the objectives were to design, and ...
متن کاملLaser-Pointing Endoscope System for Intra-Operative 3D Geometric Registration
Precise measurements of geometry should accompany robotic equipments in operating rooms if their advantages are further pursued. For deforming organs including a liver, intraoperative geometric measurements play an essential role in computer surgery in addition to pre-operative geometric information from CT, MRI and so on. We developed a laser-pointing endoscope using an optical galvano scanner...
