Methods and systems for three-dimensional real-time intraoperative surgical margin evaluation of tumor tissues
Abstract:
A method of evaluating a surgical margin of tumor tissues of a living subject includes acquiring images of a specimen of the tumor tissues; calculating a three-dimensional (3D) morphological surface of the specimen from the acquired images and displaying the 3D morphological surface; obtaining, from the 3D morphological surface, a plurality of specimen locations to cover a surface of the specimen; acquiring optical data at each specimen location; evaluating a margin status of the specimen at each specimen location to either positive or negative based on the acquired optical data; and displaying the margin status of the specimen on the 3D morphological surface of the specimen with morphological orientations.
