Functional Near-Infrared Fluorescence Imaging for Cardiac Surgery and Targeted Gene Therapy
Cardiac revascularization is presently performed without realtime visual assessment of myocardial blood flow or perfusion. Moreover, gene therapy of the heart cannot, at present, be directed to specific territories at risk for myocardial infarction. We have developed a surgical imaging system that e...
