1. Indocyanine-green fluorescence imaging to detect anastomotic insufficiency after esophagectomy
University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/FörbränningsfysikAbstract : This research project is concerned with the development of simulation models and image analysis algorithms, as well as instrumentation for characterizing anastomotic leakages after a patient has undergone surgery for esophageal cancer. Anastomotic leakage is a high-incidence complication after esophagectomy, a surgical procedure for esophageal cancer. READ MORE
