Despite significant advancements in bioimaging technology, only a limited number of fluorophores are currently approved for clinical applications. Indocyanine green (ICG) is the first FDA-approved near-infrared (NIR) fluorophore and has significantly advanced clinical interventions over the past three decades. However, its single-channel imaging at 800 nm emission is often insufficient for capturing comprehensive diagnostic information during surgery.

: This study aimed to determine the minimal effective dose of indocyanine green (ICG) required for accurately assessing colonic perfusion during laparoscopic colorectal surgery using a laser-assisted laparoscopic near-infrared (NIR) camera system. : In 15 patients with colorectal cancer undergoing right hemicolectomy, the left branch of the middle colic artery was preserved, and ICG angiography was performed in the transverse colon. To determine the optimal ICG dose, experimental doses of 0.

Indocyanine green video angiography, integrated into the operative microscope, is frequently used in cerebrovascular surgery. This technology is often preferred, for cost or availability, to Doppler or intraoperative DSA (digital subtraction angiography). With the same assumption it was possible, in our preliminary experience, to partially vicariate the aforementioned devices using the SPY mode of the Stryker endoscope; it allowed the visualization of fluorescence in high definition.

Significance: Tracking changes in the vasculature of patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) may identify the need for follow-up treatment within only weeks after an initial intervention, enabling timely support and improving patient outcomes.
Aim: We aim to evaluate dynamic vascular optical spectroscopy's (DVOS's) ability to accurately monitor the hemodynamics of affected arteries in patients with PAD after a surgical intervention and predict long-term clinical outcomes.
Approach: A DVOS system non-invasively monitored the blood flow through 256 lower extremity arteries in 80 PAD patients immediately before, immediately after, and 3 to 4 weeks after they underwent a surgical intervention.

Vascular dysfunction, characterized by changes in anatomy, hemodynamics, and molecular expressions of vasculatures, is closely linked to the onset and development of diseases, emphasizing the importance of its detection. In clinical practice, medical imaging has been utilized as a significant tool in the assessment of vascular dysfunction, however, traditional imaging techniques still lack sufficient resolution for visualizing the complex microvascular systems. Over the past decade, with the rapid advancement of nanotechnology and the emergence of corresponding detection facilities, engineered nanomaterials offer new alternatives to traditional contrast agents.
