Title:
IMAGING DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/167969
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
An imaging device 1 visualizes an image of a lymphatic vessel as a near-infrared image by fluorescence of indocyanine green, and visualizes an image of a vein as a reverse image of near-infrared image luminance absorbed by blood. In the present invention, lighting of first and second light sources and acquisition of an image by a first imaging element are executed in synchronized fashion using a synchronous clock, whereby a lymphatic vessel and a vein are visualized at the same time in the same field of view, and the images are synthesized with a visible image of a subject and displayed. A lymphatic vessel and a vein to be anastomosed can thereby be visualized at the same time in the same field of view.
