Triple-fusion imaging device for sentinel lymphadenectomy during laparoscopic surgery
The present invention provides a triple fusion imaging device for sentinel lymphadenectomy for laparoscopic surgery including: a composite laparoscope for near infrared ray/gamma ray/visible ray acquisition configured to acquire triple images of a gamma ray from a gamma ray radioactive material injected to a diseased part, a visible ray, and a near infrared ray; an optical fiber configured to transmit the triple images acquired from the composite laparoscope; an optical source configured to generate a white light for acquiring a visible image through the optical fiber and a near infrared ray excitation light for acquiring a near infrared ray image by exciting a near infrared ray emitting fluorescence material at the disease part; an optical-to-electrical conversion module configured to separate individual images of the visible ray, near infrared ray and gamma ray from the triple images delivered through the optical fiber and then respectively convert the individual images to electrical signals; a matching unit configured to match a visible image signal, a near infrared image signal and a gamma ray image signal from the optical-to-electrical conversion module to one image; and an image display unit configured to display the image from the matching unit.
