Near-Infrared Fluorescence Imaging Sensor with Laser Diffuser for Visualizing Photoimmunotherapy Effects under Endoscopy.
Sensors 2024 Februrary 26
The drug efficacy evaluation of tumor-selective photosensitive substances was expected to be enabled by imaging the fluorescence intensity in the tumor area. However, fluorescence observation is difficult during treatments that are performed during gastrointestinal endoscopy because of the challenges associated with including the fluorescence filter in the camera part. To address this issue, this study developed a device that integrates a narrow camera and a laser diffuser to enable fluorescence imaging through a forceps port. This device was employed to demonstrate that a laser diffuser with an NIR fluorescence imaging sensor could be delivered through a 3.2 mm diameter port. In addition, fluorescence images of Cetuximab-IR700 were successfully observed in two mice, and the fluorescence intensity confirmed that the fluorescence decayed within 330 s. This device is expected to have practical application as a tool to identify the optimal irradiation dose for tumor-selective photosensitive substances under endoscopy.
