Advancing Surgical Vision with Fluorescence Imaging
TL;DR: Two critical fluorescence imaging directions are reviewed: one that uses nonspecific fluorescence dyes, addressing tissue perfusion and viability, and one that use targeted agents, interrogating pathophysiological features of disease.

Near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging in breast-conserving surgery: assessing intraoperative techniques in tissue-simulating breast phantoms.
Rick G. Pleijhuis,G. C. Langhout,Wijnand Helfrich,George Themelis,Athanasios Sarantopoulos,Lucia M. A. Crane,Niels J. Harlaar,J. S. de Jong,J. S. de Jong,Vasilis Ntziachristos,van Gooitzen Dam +10 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that intraoperative NIRF imaging is feasible and may improve BCS by providing the surgeon with imaging information on tumour location, margin status, and presence of residual disease in real-time.

Singular-value analysis and optimization of experimental parameters in fluorescence molecular tomography
TL;DR: Singular-value analysis of the fluorescence tomographic problem was applied to determine optimal source and detector distributions that result in data sets that are balanced between information content and size and demonstrated the utility of SVA as a simple and efficient means of optimizing experimental parameters in problems for which a forward model of the data collection process is available.

In-vivo handheld optoacoustic tomography of the human thyroid.
TL;DR: A compact handheld version of real-time multispectral optoacoustic tomography (MSOT) is developed using a detector adapted to the dimensions and overall geometry of the human neck using a curved ultrasound array for delivering high-fidelity performance.
