This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background. Minimally invasive operations have transformed the field of surgery. Major operations are now performed through a series of 1cm incisions rather than through a large opening resulting in less pain, disability and fewer complications. Visualization of intra-abdominal structures is accomplished by endoscopes, 9mm diameter tubes containing relay optics. Application of advanced imaging techniques should enhance the surgeon's ability to perform operations more safely. Methods. Hyperspectral imaging has been adapted to endoscopic surgical instruments via a near infrared liquid crystal tunable filter and a back-illuminated, deep-depletion focal plane array with anti-etaloning process for extending sensitivity in the near infrared region. For the visible laparoscopic hyperspectral imaging, a visible low resolution liquid crystal tunable filter is used with a charged coupled device. Results. This imaging system has been used to visualize the peritoneal cavity in anesthetized pigs. Different inherent chromophores like Oxyhemoglobin, Deoxyhemoglobin, lipids and water, differentiate the intra-abdominal structures. Conclusion. Laparoscopic hyperspectral imaging has great potential for improving the surgeon's ability to "see through" the porta hepatis and visualize the common bile duct during cholecystectomy without infusing contrast agents or radiographs.

This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instrumentation with clinical implications for imaging the human oculus was developed, based upon the hyperspectral imaging modality. The novel, non invasive, microscopic multi-modal hyperspectral imaging system, which operates in the visible as well as near infrared region, is capable of generating images illustrating spatial distribution of oxyhemoglobin contributions. The device principally comprises of a liquid crystal tunable filter and a focal plane array detector that is integrated to the slit lamp microscope. A proof of principle clinical study involving ten healthy subjects was undertaken to image the microvascular structure within the dermal tissue within the near infrared region, however these results are not validated. The spectral range used in the study was 650--1050nm, with a spectral resolution of 5nm, magnification of 10X to obtain a 35 ms acquisition time and a spatial resolution of 0.054 mm at binning of 1 x 1. The successful dermal microvascular study paved way for imaging the human eye using the visible region, wherein the anterior scleral surface was visualized in seven healthy subjects to spatially map the oxyhemoglobin contributions in the microvasculature perfusing the sclera. The spectral range used in the human eye study was 520--602nm, with a spectral resolution of 2nm, magnification of 10X to obtain a 5 ms acquisition time and a spatial resolution of 0.038 mm at binning of 2 x 2.
Download or read book DLP Hyperspectral Imaging for Surgical and Clinical Utility written by Robert Paul Francis and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surgeons want technology to help them see differences in tissue chemistry. If they know how oxygenated tissues and organs are during medical procedures, they are more able to eliminate dangerous tissues and maintain viable organs. Hyperspectral imaging non-invasively measures the optical absorbance spectrum of each pixel in a spatial field of view and, with chemometric image processing, can visualize the spatial distribution of tissue oxygenation. Current hyperspectral imaging systems are too slow to monitor real-time physiological changes in live tissue. Therefore, a novel DLP Hyperspectral Imaging (DLP HSI) system is developed for real-time, non-invasive, in vivo imaging of tissue chemistry in surgical and clinical applications. The cornerstone of the new hyperspectral imaging system is an OL 490 spectral light engine created with Texas Instruments' "Digital Light Processor" (DLP®) technology. In the OL 490, polychromatic visible light is dispersed onto the micromirror array of a DLP chip so that each column of micromirrors corresponds to a narrow band of monochromatic light. Programming the mirrors individually allows the user to precisely define the intensity of each wavelength in the light engine's optical output spectrum. The OL 490 can illuminate with narrow bandpasses of light as in traditional hyperspectral imaging, but the novelty of the DLP HSI is using the OL 490 to illuminate with complex broadband illumination spectra. Regardless of the illumination scheme, the light from the OL 490 is reflected from a tissue sample of interest and detected by a scientific grade CCD focal plane array. The spectral light engine and the camera detector are fully characterized as individual components, synchronized by software, and integrated into a robust system prototype that is transported throughout surgical and clinical suites. To visualize the spatial distribution of oxygenation, a Spectral Sweep mode mimics traditional hyperspectral imaging, explicitly measures the absorbance spectrum of each image pixel, and compares each spectrum to reference spectra of tissue chromophores. Spectral Sweep mode requires 20 seconds to generate a single image chemically-encoded for relative oxygenation. In contrast, a 3 Shot mode illuminates tissue with three complex broadband spectra derived from the reference spectra of tissue chromophores, measures the relative absorbance of the complex illuminations, and directly outputs an image also chemically-encoded for relative oxygenation. The 3 Shot mode can generate 3 chemically-encoded images every second. After calibrating and optimizing the performance of the DLP Hyperspectral Imaging system, the principle of visualizing oxygenation is proven by following the reactive hyperemia in an occluded finger example. The imaging system is then applied to partial nephrectomy, lower limb neuropathy, brain surgery, reactive hyperemia in the foot, and diabetic retinopathy. Representative images show that the system is useful for visualizing relative tissue oxygenation, but the absolute values are not yet calibrated. Overall, the DLP HSI is widely accepted by urologists, neurosurgeons, and clinicians.

Sánchez-Margallo and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2015-03-19 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2014 in the subject Medicine - Biomedical Engineering, grade: Excellent "cum laude", , language: English, abstract: Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has become in many surgical specialties and procedures the gold-standard choice due to its efficiency and benefits towards patient safety. However, the introduction of laparoscopic surgery has led to the need of developing new surgical skills different to those required for open surgery, with a significant learning curve to perform a safe laparoscopic surgery. Traditional subjective assessment methods of trainees are no longer adequate for surgical training. Reduced working hours as well as demands from surgeons and associations mean that more objective assessment tools that can accredit surgeons as technically competent are required. Evidence exists to validate motion analysis for laparoscopic technical skills assessment. Motion analysis of the laparoscopic instruments seeks to determine aspects that indicate the difference between surgeon's level of surgical dexterity. However, at the moment there is not an extended method to be used with current available training systems used in training laboratories as well as for the OR. The purpose of this book is to present the design, development and validation of three novel motion analysis methods focused on the use of real laparoscopic instruments during laparoscopic performance. These methods are based on computer vision techniques attempting to not interfere with the surgical practice. They are introduced in an evolutionary way from methods for exclusive use in a box trainer to solutions with the potential of being used in actual OR setting. Overall, this work corroborates the research hypothesis regarding the use of three different video-based tracking technologies for motion analysis of laparoscopic instruments, the use of instrument motion analysis for MIS technical skills assessment and the relationship between motion-related assessment metrics and quality of technical performance in laparoscopic training. These presented methods provide a tool to objectively assess MIS technical performance and a support to train novice surgeons in MIS techniques. The findings of this work encourage us to continue researching in improving these methods to be introduced as part of an actual laparoscopic training program, both inside and outside the OR.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Laparoscopy is a method of minimally invasive surgery that is used in millions of procedures annually around the globe. Its usage trend is rising rapidly due to more favorable medical and monetary outcomes, especially when compared to open-surgery. One issue in laparoscopic procedures arises when the laparoscope lens becomes obstructed via condensation, bodily fluids, or tissue matter/residue. Currently, cleaning the laparoscope requires removing the scope from the body, wiping it on a sponge/cloth, and usually applying anti-condensation solution to the lens before reinserting the scope into the body. This scope cleaning process generates concerns related to medical and economic outcomes, with shows statistical correlation to higher rates of complications and post-surgical site infections with extended times under anesthesia. The ability to clean a laparoscope quickly and effectively inside the body stands to improve medical and monetary outcomes for numerous stakeholders. Current technologies show minimal adoption due to problems surrounding efficacy, compatibility, etc. This dissertation describes the analysis of customer needs relating to this medical issue in addition to the design and evaluation of a novel in-vivo laparoscope cleaning device to address the problem. Also included is additional discussion surrounding regulatory considerations of said device

Download or read book Use of Hyperspectral Imaging for the Study of Hemoglobin Oxygen Saturation in the Microcirculation written by Alfredo Lucas and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hyperspectral imaging is an imaging modality that combines imaging and spectroscopy in the same system. The ability to combine spectral and spatial information in the same modality allows for spectral analysis at every spatial location in a given image. This thesis will present a novel hyperspectral imaging approach for the study of the microcirculation in vivo. The approach involves the use of a spatial-scanning hyperspectral imaging technique, coupled with an efficient processing pipeline. Much of the literature involving the use of hyperspectral imaging for the study of the microcirculation in vivo has focused in very spatially limited approaches that involve the use of spectral-scanning hyperspectral imaging systems. With the spatial-scanning approach, a wider field of view, and superior spatial resolution is achieved, allowing for better averaging and higher statistical power in the results. Chapter 1 is a brief introduction. Chapter 2 presents a literature review of the different hyperspectral imaging modalities and their respective biomedical applications. A comprehensive review of the current state of the literature regarding the use of hyperspectral imaging for the study of the microcirculation in vivo is also included. Chapter 3 presents a work currently submitted for publication in which a spatial-scanning hyperspectral imaging approach is used to study hypoxia dynamics in a hamster window chamber model. Chapter 4 presents a mathematical modeling of post-hypoxic hemoglobin reoxygenation dynamics in a mouse window chamber, measured by hyperspectral imaging. Finally, Chapter 5 presents the use of hyperspectral imaging for the monitoring of hemoglobin oxygenation dynamics during hemorrhagic shock onset, resuscitation and recovery.
