Outline of Final Research Achievements

The 5-ALA fluorescence guided excision method improves the resection rate of malignant glioma and improves the patient's prognosis. However, there are unresolved problems as a diagnostic method. For example, there are problems of false negatives due to lack of excitation light intensity, and ambiguity of diagnosis due to macroscopic subjective judgment. In order to overcome these drawbacks, development of a safe auxiliary light source and development of quantitative fluorescence diagnostic apparatus are desired.
In this study, we developed devices (ultrasound scalpel driven by fluorescence sensor, fluorescence sensor driven LED light source device for diagnosis, LED light source device for diagnosis) that overcome these drawbacks, and applied it clinically and verified its usefulness.
