摘要:
Some embodiments of this disclosure relates to systems and methods for imaging a patient's vasculature. For example, near infrared (NIR) light can be used to illuminate a target area and light that is reflected or scattered from the target area can be used for generate an image of the target area. In some embodiments, the system can be configured such that the image shows the presence, absence, or extent of infiltration or extravasation in the target area. The system can be configured to document that presence, absence, or extend of infiltration or extravasation at an infusion site. In some embodiments, an imaging system can be mounted onto a patient so that the imaging system can monitor an infusion site, and the imaging system can be configured to automatically detect the presence of infiltration or extravasation.
