Intraoperative near-infrared fluorescence visualization of anatomical structures in general surgical and urological practice. (English)

Aim: to analyze current literature on the assessment of intraoperative near-infrared fluorescence visualization of anatomical structures in general surgical and urological practice. The experience of using intraoperative near-infrared fluorescence visualization of anatomical structures in general surgical and urological practice is analyzed. The priority areas of the method application are defined, the recent clinical studies in various fields of surgery and urology are reviewed. Conclusions. The method of intraoperative near-infrared fluorescence imaging of anatomical structures with abundant vascularization and for assessing oncological prognosis is the most promising.
