Semi-Quantitative Comparison of Infrared Thermography with Indocyanine Green Imaging in Porcine Intestinal Resection

ConclusionBased on experiments, the infrared thermography can be considered as one of complementary imaging methods suitable for use during anastomosis surgery. The sensitivity and versatility of the infrared thermography method was demonstrated. There was confirmed agreement in obtained information about the position of area with maximal blood insufficiency obtained by IRT with the information obtained by using the ICG method.Graphical abstract
