Current and Future Clinical Applications for Optical Chemical Probes

Caption

This figure shows current and future clinical applications for optical chemical probes. Top: future application of optical contrast agents includes intravenous administration for pre operative diagnostics and planning. Middle: current use of optical contrast agents for in vivo surgical guidance. Bottom: topical probe labeling can be used for ex vivo surgical guidance. Red circles denote optical probe accumulation in tissue.
