摘要:
The device is provided with a laser (1) for exciting the fluorescent imaging agent which emits radiation at a wavelength that causes any of the agent located within the vasculature or tissue of interest (3) irradiated thereby to emit radiation of a particular wavelength. Advantageously, a camera capable of obtaining multiple images over a period of time, such as a CCD camera (2) may be used to capture the emissions from the imaging agent. A band-pass filter (6) prevents the capture of radiation other than that emitted by the imaging agent. A distance sensor (9) incorporates a visual display (9a) providing feedback to the physician saying that the laser be located at a distance from the vessel of interest that is optimal for the capture of high quality images.
