Near-infrared fluorescent imaging techniques for the detection and preservation of parathyroid glands during endocrine surgery

In over 30% of all thyroid surgeries, complications arise from transient and definitive hypoparathyroidism, underscoring the need for real-time identification and preservation of parathyroid glands (PGs). Here, we evaluate the promising intraoperative optical technologies available for the identific...
