Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Main study parameters/endpoints: Investigate the feasibility of identification<br /><br>of endometriotic lesions with (conventional non-robotic) fluorescence<br /><br>laparoscopy equipment with preoperative or peroperative ICG administration.<br /><br>Assessment will be performed using an intraoperative registration form (see<br /><br>attachment), postoperative video-analysis (with determination of the<br /><br>target-to-background ratio) and with histological confirmation. Biopsies will<br /><br>be taken from suspicious endometriotic areas seen with both the conventional<br /><br>white light mode and NIRF-mode, areas that appear only with white light mode<br /><br>or NIRF-mode and areas without any visible or fluorescent areas. Histologic<br /><br>examination is carried out on the biopsies to confirm the diagnosis.</p><br>
