Robot Assisted Near Infrared Fluorescence Imaging

 

In this excellent video from the OLV Vattikuti Robotic Surgery Institute, we learn how using fluorescence (Firefly) can enhance the ability to visualize ischemia, blood flow and highlight tissue. Three procedures are profiled: Robot Assisted (R.A.) Partial Nephrectomy, R.A. Redo Pyeloplasty and R.A. Intracorporeal Ileal Conduit. Narrated, with da Vinci camera and Firefly fluorescent images. 10:58
