Background: The conventional near-infrared fluorescence clip (NIRFC): ZEOCLIP FS®, was difficult to observe using the Firefly on da Vinci. We improved the ZEOCLIP FS® and produced the da Vinci compatible NIRFC. In this report, we describe a robot-assisted wedge resection of a submucosal tumour (SMT) of the stomach using the da Vinci compatible NIRFC.

Presentation Of Case: Surgery was performed for an enlarging SMT (from 18 to 22 mm with an intragastric growth type). Through endoscopy, four da Vinci-compatible NIRFCs were placed at the tumour edge two days prior to the surgery. The location of the NIRFC was confirmed when observed with the Firefly. The distal NIRFC site was incised with a monopolar shear blade to identify the NIRFCs and tumour base. The open area was sutured in two layers using a 3-0 V-Loc. The operation time was 83 min, and the amount of blood loss was 2 g. There were no complications or clip dropout.

Discussion: This method could be performed without intraoperative endoscopist.

Conclusion: In this case, we were able to observe the position of the da Vinci-compatible NIRFC with Firefly on da Vinci. This technique may be an option as a simple procedure to minimize the resection area of the stomach.

Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) is a highly expressed and structurally unique target specific to prostate cancer (PCa). Diagnostic and therapeutic approaches in nuclear medicine, coupling PSMA ligands with radionuclides, have shown significant clinical success. PSMA-PET/CT effectively identifies tumors and metastatic lymph nodes for imaging purposes, while -PSMA-617 (Pluvicto) has received FDA approval for treating metastatic castration-resistant PCa (mCRPC).

Estrogen receptor β (ERβ) is aberrantly expressed in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Therefore, a diagnostic and therapeutic ERβ probe not only helps to reveal the complex role of ERβ in prostate cancer (PCa), but also promotes ERβ-targeted PCa therapy. Herein, we reported a novel ERβ-targeted near-infrared fluorescent probe D3 with both imaging and therapeutic functions, which had the advantages of high ERβ selectivity, good optical performance, and strong anti-interference ability.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is typically diagnosed at intermediate to advanced stage, making surgical treatment unfeasible. Conversion therapy aims to reduce tumor stage, improve hepatic resection feasibility, and lower recurrence rates. Since traditional therapies are often accompanied by uncertainty of efficacy, there is an urgent need to explore new treatment strategies.

The gut bacteria not only play a crucial role in maintaining human health but also exhibit close associations with the occurrence of numerous diseases. Understanding the physiological and pathological functions of gut bacteria and enabling early diagnosis of gut diseases heavily relies on accurate knowledge about their in vivo distribution. Consequently, there is a significant demand for noninvasive imaging techniques capable of providing real-time localization information regarding gut bacteria.

Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) has emerged as an urgent clinical challenge. It is characterized by mitochondrial dysfunction in liver cells, which leads to abnormal changes in HO levels within the mitochondria. Super-resolution imaging allows for the observation of the fine structure of mitochondria at the nanometer scale, potentially enabling the detection of mitochondrial HO levels during DILI at the subcellular organelle level.
