Summary
Study start date: September 1, 2012
Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. The primary objective of this pilot study is to assess the ability of fluorescent imaging and photoacoustic imaging (PAI) in a clinical setting to distinguish benign from malignant tissue. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To qualitatively determine the possible benefit of PAI and fluorescent imaging over traditional white light imaging. OUTLINE: Patients undergo fluorescence imaging and PAI during robot assisted laparoscopic surgery.
