    Keywords : Near-infrared; indocyanine green ICG ; biomedical optics; fluorescence; spectroscopy; lasers.;

    Abstract : Indocyanine green (ICG) is a fluorescent dye used as an indicator in medicine and surgery. The maximum absorption wavelength of ICG is at 785 nm, while the maximum emission is around 820 nm. ICG is nontoxic and is rapidly excreted into the bile. READ MORE

  4. 3. Experimental set-up for near infrared fluorescence measurements during surgery

    University essay from Biomedicinsk instrumentteknik; Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Pascal Behm; [2013]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In case a tumour grows in a tissue close to the lymphatic system, biopsies of the first draining lymph nodes connected to the tumour, also known as sentinel lymph nodes, allow determining if the cancer has already metastasized. Lymph node mapping is used in oncology surgery to find the patients lymph nodes connected to the tumour. READ MORE
