- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method 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
Name Time Method Secondary paramters are the correlation between observerd fluorescence intensities, oxygenation values and local skin temperature with conventional diagnostic techniques and clinical outcomes.
