| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
(1) Fluorescence imaging of pancreas tumor, nerve, and urinal tract. We developed a new fluorescence imaging system and conducted an IRB-approved clinical trial in human. We conformed the safety of the new technique and visualized pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor and vessels as fluorescence. Fluorescence of urine was visualized. However, we did not confirm fluorescence of urinal tract and nerve because surgery of urinal tract and never was limited. We’re conducting an experiment using rat models.
(2) Micro fluorescence imaging of cancer. We conducted another IRB-approved clinical trial using a confocal laser endomicroscopy. In more than 90% of surgical specimens, cancerous tissues were differentiated from non-cancerous tissues using this technique. For bile duct cancer, the sensitivity for identifying malignancy was about 60% and the specificity was 80%. We’re conducting a research about AI diagnosis.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
手術後の短期・長期成績を向上させるため手術損傷の回避は必須である。近年普及しつつあるインドシアニングリーンを用いた蛍光イメージングは胆道排泄のため膵腫瘍、尿管、神経の蛍光観察は不可能であった。それらを描出できる新しい蛍光イメージングは尿管や神経の損傷に起因する合併症を予防し手術時間の短縮、安全性の向上に寄与する可能性がある。癌の手術において術中癌診断は病理医による迅速診断が唯一の方法であった。癌のミクロ蛍光イメージングと術野観察、手術検体観察は術中癌診断にかかる時間を短縮し病理医の負担を軽減する可能性があり、診断精度が確立した際の手術時間の短縮、医療経済の改善がもたらされる可能性がある。
