YANTAI, China, April 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- In high-stakes neurosurgery, gaining real-time insights into cerebral blood flow is vital yet challenging. Conventional indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging relies on contrast agents and offers limited repeatability. Now, infrared thermography cameras promise a non-contact, contrast-free, radiation-free, and non-invasive diagnostic imaging alternative, delivering continuous monitoring that enhances surgical precision and patient safety.
How Infrared Thermal Imaging Empowers Medical Diagnostics
Thermal imaging cameras convert subtle temperature variations from cerebral blood circulation into high-resolution thermal maps, enabling surgeons to "see" vascular flow invisible to the naked eye. This non-invasive thermal imaging technology integrates seamlessly into neurosurgical workflow, such as cerebrovascular bypass, offering continuous intraoperative monitoring without interruption.
Raytron's Thermographic Imaging Camera for Clinical Application in Neurosurgery
Raytron, a prominent global provider of infrared thermal imaging solutions, has developed an innovative thermal camera for medical use. In 2023, a surgical team led by Dr. Lin Jinghui at the First Affiliated Hospital of Ningbo University—a top-tier public hospital in China—deployed Raytron's proprietary ATR1280 thermal imaging camera during life-saving bypass operations for patients with moyamoya disease, a rare cerebrovascular disorder.
The team conducted intraoperative infrared imaging on 21 adult patients undergoing STA-MCA (superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery) bypass surgery and identified several key advantages over conventional methods:
These benefits may support more informed decision-making and contribute to improved patient outcomes, marking a promising development in thermographic neurosurgical imaging.
