摘要:
A method or process for intra-operatively providing anatomical guidance in endocrine surgery. In one embodiment, the process includes the steps of illuminating human tissues (407) in the neck area of a human being in operation with a beam of light (211, 454), obtaining fluorescent data from the light scattered (428, 405) from the human tissues, finding fluorescent signatures from the obtained fluorescent data, and identifying tissues that are corresponding to the fluorescent signatures that represent thyroid or parathyroid tissues.

A process for intra-operatively providing anatomical guidance in an endocrine surgery, comprising: (a) illuminating human tissues in the neck area of a human being in operation with a beam of light; (b) obtaining fluorescence data from light emitted from the human tissues in response to the illumination; and (c) displaying images generated from the obtained fluorescence data in a display for providing anatomical guidance in the endocrine surgery.

摘要:
A system (400 A; C; E; G) for intra-operatively identifying parathyroid tissues and thyroid tissues of a living subject, comprising a light source (402) for illuminating tissues (407) in a target region in the neck area of the living subject, a light delivery and collection device (406, 426), which is optically coupled with the light source (402) for delivering a beam of light from the light source (402) to the tissue (407) and for collecting optical signals emitted from the tissue (407) responsive to the incident beam of light, and a detector (414, 434) for detecting the intensity of the optical signals emitted from the tissue (407) in order to enable a surgeon to differentiate between parathyroid tissues and thyroid tissues.

摘要:
One aspect of the invention relates to a method for intraoperative assessment of parathyroid gland viability in a surgery. The method includes diffusing a beam of light onto a tissue surface of a parathyroid gland of a patient to illuminate the tissue surface; acquiring images of the illuminated tissue surface, where each of the acquired images includes a speckle pattern; and processing the acquired images to obtain speckle contrast images for the intraoperative assessment of parathyroid gland viability.
