Abstract:
Current surgical procedures for colorectal adenocarcinoma are plagued by a lack of precise information due to lack of sensitivity and specificity of preoperative imaging and surgical limitations in the Operating Room using traditional techniques (i.e., inspection and palpation). The staging of colorectal adenocarcinoma begins with preoperative imaging and ends with the pathologist. There are many potential sources of error between these two points that may result in suboptimal treatment. Using colorectal adenocarcinoma as a model, we developed a System incorporating currently available technologies to increase the precision of Preoperative and Intraoperative imaging as well as intraoperative tumor detection.
