Localization of protoporphyrin IX in glioma patients with paired stimulated Raman histology and two-photon excitation fluorescence microscopy
2022-12-22
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Fluorescence guidance is widely utilized to improve the precision of cancer surgery. 5-aminolevulinic acid, the most widely used fluorophore in glioma surgery, is thought to cause selective accumulation of fluorescent protoporphyrin IX (PpIX) in tumor cells. 5-aminolevulinic acid is highly specific for densely tumor-infiltrated tissue but less effective for visualizing the tumor periphe...
