Localization of Transcranial Targets for Photoacoustic-Guided Endonasal Surgeries
Neurosurgeries to remove pituitary tumors using the endonasal, transsphenoidal approach often incur the risk of patient death caused by injury to the carotid arteries hidden by surrounding sphenoid bone. To avoid this risk, we propose intraoperative photoacoustic vessel visualization with an optical fiber attached to the surgical tool and an external ultrasound transducer placed on the temple. ...
متن کاملA novel drill design for photoacoustic guided surgeries
Fluoroscopy is currently the standard approach for image guidance of surgical drilling procedures. In addition to the harmful radiation dose to the patient and surgeon, fluoroscopy fails to visualize critical structures such as blood vessels and nerves within the drill path. Photoacoustic imaging is a well-suited imaging method to visualize these structures and it does not require harmful ioniz...
متن کاملNasalance Changes Following Various Endonasal Surgeries
Introduction There is change in nasalance post endonasal surgery which is not permanent. Objectives The objective of this study is to evaluate the long-term nasalance changes following different types of endonasal surgeries. Methods We included in this study patients who underwent sinonasal surgery at the Otorhinolaryngology Department in Zagazig University Hospitals from February 2015 until Ma...
متن کاملOpportunities for Photoacoustic-Guided Drug Delivery.
Photoacoustic imaging (PAI) is rapidly becoming established as a viable imaging modality for small animal research, with promise of near-future human clinical translation. In this review, we discuss emerging prospects for photoacoustic-guided drug delivery. PAI presents opportunities for applications related to drug delivery, mainly with respect to either monitoring drug effects or monitoring d...
متن کاملNovel Use of an Image-Guided Stereotactic Approach in Trauma for Localization of Transcranial Bullet
Penetrating brain injuries from gunshot wounds can carry a poor prognosis and require an aggressive, multifaceted approach to obtain a good prognosis and outcome. An initial evaluation requires appropriate imaging studies followed by management and prophylaxis against increased intracranial pressure, infection, and seizures. Surgical management is then followed to ensure the watertight closure ...
