Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>As this is a feasibility study, the main parameter is the (percentage of) cases<br /><br>in which SFR spectroscopy was possible to measure the reflectance during ERCP<br /><br>procedure.</p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The shape of the spectra and the optical absorption coefficients over a broad<br /><br>wavelength range will be used to distinguish benign and malign biliary<br /><br>strictures. To extract and quantify physiological information from the obtained<br /><br>spectra validated mathematical model, based on the knowledge of the absorption<br /><br>spectra of the chromophores, will be used. The extracted parameters are:<br /><br>1) Microvascular saturation<br /><br>2) Blood volume<br /><br>3) Average vascular diameter<br /><br>4) Parameter related to the scattering properties of tissue in real-time.<br /><br><br /><br>The parameters will be linked to final histological analysis. </p><br>
