Special Surgical Microscope Sees Through Blood to Distinguish Bacterially Infested Tissue, Bone, Nerves and Soft Tissue
A new collaborative project ‘BetterView’ is working on a special surgical microscope to detect cholesteatomas - an aggressive form of chronic otitis media that triggers inflammation of the middle ear - and bacterial biofilms and to remove them safely. The special surgical microscope uses short-wave infrared light to illuminate blood, bacterial biofilms, cartilage, and soft tissue; display them spatially; and make them distinguishable from each other.
