Fluorescence image guided surgical instruments and contrast agents for intraoperative visualization of nerves

Fluorescence image-guided surgery (FIGS) improves intraoperative visualization of critical structures. We describe the advancement of handheld and minimally invasive imaging hardware, coupled with myelin-targeting contrast agents, to bring FIGS nerve labeling closer to clinical translation.
