Inclusion Criteria

Patients = 18 years old that are fit for surgery and scheduled to undergo free flap surgery for reconstruction of a defect caused by oncological resection or trauma will be included.

Exclusion Criteria

Pregnancy or lactation; Participation in another fluorescence imaging study investigating ICG or a targeted optical imaging agent in the near-infrared fluorescence imaging wavelength (>650 nm) within one month prior to enrollment; A known severe hepatic or renal insufficiency; A history of hyperthyroidism; An autonomous thyroid adenoma; A history of allergic reactions to ICG or Iodine

Study & Design

Observational non invasive
Study Design
Not specified
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The main study parameter will be the ICG-derived fluorescence intensities during pre-, per- and post-operatively NIRF angiography. In addition, the other main study parameters are the HSI oxygenation values and thermal imaging skin temperature values observed during postoperative evaluation of the flap.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary paramters are the correlation between observerd fluorescence intensities, oxygenation values and local skin temperature with conventional diagnostic techniques and clinical outcomes.
