Advances in Intraoperative Imaging for Vascular Neurosurgery

Neuroimaging Clin N Am. 2024 May;34(2):261-270. doi: 10.1016/j.nic.2024.01.005. Epub 2024 Feb 28.

Abstract

Cerebrovascular surgery has many intraoperative imaging modalities available. Modern technologies include intraoperative digital subtraction angiogram, indocyanine green (ICG) angiography, relative fluorescent measurement with ICG, and ultrasound. Each of these can be used effectively in the treatment of open aneurysm and arteriovenous malformation surgeries, in addition to arteriovenous fistula surgery, and cerebral bypass surgery.

Keywords: Cerebral angiogram; Indocyanine green angiography; Intraoperative imaging; Relative fluorescence measurement (FLOW 800).
