In-House Handmade Camera for Indocyanine Green Video Angiography
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
Background and Aim: Vascular imaging during surgical procedures is very important and has many applications. There are several methods for intraoperative vascular assessment such as intraoperative angiography, Doppler, and fluorescence-based techniques. The latter group and specially the Indocyanine Green (ICG) Video Angiography (VA) is commonly used for vascular surgery and sentinel node biopsy. However, the cost of these microscope mounted cameras limit their availability in the developing countries. Considering this limitation, we designed and constructed a simplified low-cost camera for real-time ICG angiography. In this article, we describe the device structure and give a preliminary report on its usage in an animal model. Methods and Materials/ Patients: ICG-VA camera was designed and constructed in our laboratory. The device consists of optic filters, light sources, and cameras. Results: After inducing anesthesia and exposing mesenteric vessels in a mouse, ICG-VA of these vessels were taken and recorded. Conclusion: Considering the very low cost of the device and its acceptable image quality, it can be utilized in operation theatres and or laboratories for research purposes.

Near-infrared indocyanine green video angiography in aneurysm surgery.
The most important goal of a vascular neurosurgeon during an intracranial aneurysm clipping is achieving complete exclusion of the aneurysm from the circulation with preservation of blood flow distal to the aneurysm. Occlusion of the parent vessel or distal branches due to improper clip application has been a significant factor in the poor outcome. Similarly, incomplete clipping of an aneurysm ...

A brief survey of the recent ophthalmic literature underscores a resurgence of interest in indocyanine green angiography (ICGA). This imaging method may be particularly useful for the ophthalmologist, as it provides at least a theoretical advantage for improved imaging of the choroidal circulation when compared with fluorescein angiography. New temporal and spatial technological advances (that ...

BACKGROUND Extravasation of cytotoxic drugs is a serious complication of systemic cancer treatment. Still, a reliable method for early assessment of tissue damage and outcome prediction is missing. Here, we demonstrate that the evaluation of blood flow by indocyanine green (ICG) angiography in the extravasation area predicts for the need of surgical intervention. METHODS Twenty-nine patients ...

Dynamic indocyanine green imaging uses a scanning laser ophthalmoscope and a fluorescent dye to produce movies of the dye-filling pattern in the retina and choroid of the eye. It is used for evaluating choroidal neovascularization. Movies are examined to identify the anatomy of the pathology for planning treatment and to evaluate progression or response to treatment. The popularity of this appr...
