Abstract
Image-guided liver biopsies can improve their success rate when combined with the optical detection of Indocyanine Green (ICG) fluorescence accumulated in tumors. Previous works used a camera coupled to a thin borescope to capture and quantify images from fluorescence emission during procedures; however, light-scattering prevented the formation of sharp images, and the time response for weakly fluorescent tumors was very low. Instead, replacing the camera with a photodiode detector shows an improved temporal resolution in a more compact and lighter device. This work presents the new design in a comparative study between both detection technologies, including an assessment of the temporal response and sensitivity to the presence of background fluorescence.
