Background Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence is a promising novel imaging technique that
can aid in intraoperative demarcation of pancreatic cancer (PDAC) and thus increase radical …

Background Operative management of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is
complicated by several key decisions during the procedure. Identification of metastatic …

Surgery is the cornerstone of oncologic therapy with curative intent. However, identification
of tumor cells in the resection margins is difficult, resulting in nonradical resections …

Background Despite recent surgical advances, pancreatic cancer remains the fourth leading
cause of cancer-related death in the United States. This is due to inaccurate staging and …

Purpose Fluorescence-guided surgery (FGS) provides surgeons with new opportunities to
improve real-time cancer nodule detection and tumor margin visualization. Currently, the …

Background Complete surgical resection remains the primary curative option for pancreatic
ductal adenocarcinoma, with positive margins in 30–70% of patients. In this study, we aimed …

Background We have developed a method of distinguishing normal tissue from pancreatic
cancer in vivo using fluorophore-conjugated antibody to carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) …

Objective: To determine if intraoperative near-infrared (NIR) imaging carries benefit in
resection of pancreatic neoplasms. Background: Resection of pancreatic malignancies is …

Introduction Colorectal and pancreatic cancers together comprise the third and fourth most
common causes of cancer-related death in the United States. In both of these cancers …

Results FL enabled more rapid and accurate identification and localization of primary tumors
and metastases than BL. Using BL took statistically significantly longer time than FL. More …
