They are typically quite bulky and thus incompatible with an operating theatre’s already-crammed sterile field. Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) solutions’ form factor is one important hurdle. Many studies on this topic have already been conducted, but several issues have prevented the technology from being integrated into hospitals’ everyday workflows. Truth be told, the idea of using hyperspectral cameras in surgical practice is not new.

One important driver is the development of spectral imaging technology directly compatible with current medical practice.ĭownload our white paper on how spectral imaging can advance surgical vision When two worlds meet, magic happens It is a glimpse at a future that is much closer than one might think. Imagine surgeons being able to make decisions based on real-time information about tissues’ chemical composition at a molecular level, ‘seeing’ the oxygenation of blood flowing through arteries and vessels, or distinguishing in vivo between healthy and anomalous tissue, such as tumor cells. This approach is bound to revolutionize medical treatment. Combined with new types of cameras, they truly ‘make the invisible visible.’ This development is especially meaningful due to the use of surgical microscopes to magnify the operating field and allow for higher precision. One particularly interesting development has been the emergence of microsurgery. Surgery has evolved tremendously over the past few decades.
