- Abstract:
- INTRODUCTION: Fluorescence angiography (FA) with indocyanine green (ICG) and hyperspectral imaging (HSI) are novel intraoperative visualization techniques in abdominal, vascular and transplant surgery. With the purpose of precision surgery, and in order to increase patient's safety, these new tools aim at reducing postoperative morbidity and mortality. This review discusses and highlights recent developments and the future potential of real-time imaging modalities. METHODS: The underlying mechanisms of the novel imaging methods and their clinical impact are displayed in the context of avoiding anastomotic leaks, the most momentous complications in gastrointestinal surgery after oncologic resections. RESULTS: While FA is associated with the admission of a fluorescence agent, HSI is contact-free and non-invasive. Both methods are able to record physiological tissue properties in real-time. Additionally, FA also measures dynamic phenomena. The techniques take a few seconds only and do not hamper the operative workflow considerably. With regard to a potential change of the surgical strategy, FA and HSI have an equal significance. Our own advancements reflect, in particular, the topics of data visualization and automated data analyses together with the implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) and minimalization of the current devices to install them into endoscopes, minimal-invasive and robot-guided surgery. CONCLUSION: There are a limited number of studies in the field of intraoperative imaging techniques. Whether precision surgery in the "high-tech" OR together with FA, HSI and robotics will result in more secure operative procedures to minimize the postoperative morbidity and mortality will have to be evaluated in future multicenter trials.
