Custom Hyperspectral Imaging System Reveals Unique Spectral Signatures of Heart, Kidney, and Liver Tissues.

The rapid advancement of diagnostic and therapeutic optical techniques for oncology demands a good understanding of the optical properties of biological tissues. This study explores the capabilities of hyperspectral (HS) cameras as a non-invasive and non-contact optical imaging system to distinguish and highlight spectral differences inbiological soft tissuesof three structures (kidney, heart, and liver) for use inendoscopic interventionoropen surgery. The study presents an optical system consisting of two individual setups, the transmission setup, and the reflection setup, both incorporating anHS camerawith apolychromatic light sourcewithin the range of 380 to 1050 nm to measure tissue's light transmission (T) and diffuse light reflectance (R), respectively.

Emerging technology for intraoperative margin assessment and post-operative tissue diagnosis for breast-conserving surgery.

Introduction: Tissue-preserving surgery is utilized progressively in cancer therapy, where a clear surgical margin is critical to avoid cancer recurrence, specifically in breast cancer (BC) surgery. The Intraoperative pathologic approaches that rely on tissue segmenting and staining have been recognized as the ground truth for BC diagnosis. Nevertheless, these methods are constrained by its complication and timewasting for tissue preparation.

Oxygen saturation measurements using novel diffused reflectance with hyperspectral imaging: Towards facile COVID-19 diagnosis.

Oxygen saturation level plays a vital role in screening, diagnosis, and therapeutic assessment of disease's assortment. There is an urgent need to design and implement early detection devices and applications for the COVID-19 pandemic; this study reports on the development of customized, highly sensitive, non-invasive, non-contact diffused reflectance system coupled with hyperspectral imaging for mapping subcutaneous blood circulation depending on its oxygen saturation level. The forearm of 15 healthy adult male volunteers with age range of (20-38 years) were illuminated via a polychromatic light source of a spectrum range 400-980 nm.

Hyperspectral image-based analysis of thermal damage for ex-vivo bovine liver utilizing radiofrequency ablation.

Background & Objective: Thermal ablation is the predominant methodology to treat liver tumors for segregating patients who are not permitted to have surgical intervention. However, noticing or predicting the size of the thermal strategies is a challenging endeavor. We aim to analyze the effects of ablation district volume following radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of ex-vivo liver exploiting a custom Hyperspectral Imaging (HSI) system.

Custom optical imaging system for ex-vivo breast cancer detection based on spectral signature.

Background And Purpose: Breast cancer is a popular well-known tumor in women globally and the subsequent driving reason for malignancy death. The purpose of the present study is to develop Low cost, commercial, and affordable system that discriminates malignant from normal breast tissues by exploiting the unique properties of Hyperspectral (HS) Imaging.

Materials And Methods: The difference in the optical properties of the investigated breast tissues gives various reactions to light transmission, absorption, and especially the reflection over the spectral range.
