The present invention relates to a surgical lamp (100) comprising both a first light source (110) and a second light source (112), where the first light source is capable of emitting light across a broad first spectral range and the second light source being capable of emitting light having an emission peak in a narrow second spectral range. The surgical lamp further features a light source selecting device (120), capable of selectively turning on and off the first and the second light source. The first light source has a high color rendering index so as to enable objects, such as tissues, to appear in their true color, and the second light source has a low or non-definable color rendering index, so as enable accentuation of particular tissues.
