Area of Science:

Surgical Oncology
Medical Imaging
Theranostics

Background:

Significant advancements in optical and fluorescence imaging for surgical translation.
Fluorescence imaging provides real-time intraoperative feedback for identifying tumor margins.
Potential for intraoperative adjuvant treatments like photoimmunotherapy.

Purpose of the Study:

To review the application of optical imaging in intraoperative guidance and decision-making.
To highlight the role of image-guided surgery in improving patient outcomes.

Main Methods:

Review of current literature on optical imaging in surgery.
Discussion of fluorescence imaging, photoimmunotherapy, and multispectral optoacoustic tomography.

Main Results:

Image-guided cancer surgery shows potential for enhanced surgical care.
Photoimmunotherapy emerges as a promising theranostic approach for residual disease treatment.
Multispectral optoacoustic tomography shows potential for perioperative and postoperative applications.

Conclusions:

Real-time optical imaging strategies have advanced for intraoperative tumor detection and margin assessment.
Optical imaging promises higher rates of negative surgical margins and early detection of micrometastatic disease.
