Simulating photodynamic therapy for the treatment of glioblastoma using Monte Carlo radiative transport. JOURNAL OF BIOMEDICAL OPTICS 2024; 29:025001. [PMID: 38322729 PMCID: PMC10846422 DOI: 10.1117/1.jbo.29.2.025001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2023] [Revised: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 01/17/2024] [Indexed: 02/08/2024]
Abstract
Significance Glioblastoma (GBM) is a rare but deadly form of brain tumor with a low median survival rate of 14.6 months, due to its resistance to treatment. An independent simulation of the INtraoperative photoDYnamic therapy for GliOblastoma (INDYGO) trial, a clinical trial aiming to treat the GBM resection cavity with photodynamic therapy (PDT) via a laser coupled balloon device, is demonstrated. Aim To develop a framework providing increased understanding for the PDT treatment, its parameters, and their impact on the clinical outcome. Approach We use Monte Carlo radiative transport techniques within a computational brain model containing a GBM to simulate light path and PDT effects. Treatment parameters (laser power, photosensitizer concentration, and irradiation time) are considered, as well as PDT's impact on brain tissue temperature. Results The simulation suggests that 39% of post-resection GBM cells are killed at the end of treatment when using the standard INDYGO trial protocol (light fluence = 200 J / cm 2 at balloon wall) and assuming an initial photosensitizer concentration of 5 μ M . Increases in treatment time and light power (light fluence = 400 J / cm 2 at balloon wall) result in further cell kill but increase brain cell temperature, which potentially affects treatment safety. Increasing the p hotosensitizer concentration produces the most significant increase in cell kill, with 61% of GBM cells killed when doubling concentration to 10 μ M and keeping the treatment time and power the same. According to these simulations, the standard trial protocol is reasonably well optimized with improvements in cell kill difficult to achieve without potentially dangerous increases in temperature. To improve treatment outcome, focus should be placed on improving the photosensitizer. Conclusions With further development and optimization, the simulation could have potential clinical benefit and be used to help plan and optimize intraoperative PDT treatment for GBM.

Abstract
Diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) has been extensively studied in both preclinical and clinical settings for multiple applications, notably as a minimally invasive diagnostic tool for tissue identification and disease delineation. In this study, extended-wavelength DRS (EWDRS) measurements of ex vivo tissues ranging from ultraviolet through visible to the short-wave infrared region (355-1919 nm) are presented in two datasets. The first dataset contains labelled EWDRS measurements collected from bone cement samples and ovine specimens including 10 tissue types commonly encountered in orthopedic surgeries for data curation purposes. The other dataset includes labelled EWDRS measurements of primarily bone structures at different depths during stepwise drilling into intact porcine skulls until plunging into the cranial cavity. The raw data with code for pre-processing and calibration is publicly available for reuse on figshare. The datasets can be utilized not only for exploratory purposes in machine learning model construction, but also for knowledge discovery in the orthopedic domain to identify important features for surgical guidance, extract physiological parameters and provide diagnostic insights.

Abstract
The fabrication of a stable, reproducible optical imaging phantom is critical to the assessment and optimization of optical imaging systems. We demonstrate the use of an alternative material, glass, for the development of tissue-mimicking phantoms. The glass matrix was doped with nickel ions to approximate the absorption of hemoglobin. Scattering levels representative of human tissue were induced in the glass matrix through controlled crystallization at elevated temperatures. We show that this type of glass is a viable material for creating tissue-mimicking optical phantoms by providing controlled levels of scattering and absorption with excellent optical homogeneity, long-term stability and reproducibility.

Abstract
Safely maximizing brain cancer removal without injuring adjacent healthy tissue is crucial for optimal treatment outcomes. However, it is challenging to distinguish cancer from noncancer intraoperatively. This study aimed to explore the feasibility of diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) as a label-free and real-time detection technology for discrimination between brain cancer and noncancer tissues. Fifty-five fresh cancer and noncancer specimens from 19 brain surgeries were measured with DRS, and the results were compared with co-registered clinical standard histopathology. Tissue optical properties were quantitatively obtained from the diffuse reflectance spectra and compared among different types of brain tissues. A machine learning-based classifier was trained to differentiate cancerous versus noncancerous tissues. Our method could achieve a sensitivity of 93% and specificity of 95% for discriminating high-grade glioma from normal white matter. Our results showed that DRS has the potential to be used for label-free, real-time in vivo cancer detection during brain surgery.

Lightfield hyperspectral imaging in neuro-oncology surgery: an IDEAL 0 and 1 study. Front Neurosci 2023; 17:1239764. [PMID: 37790587 PMCID: PMC10544348 DOI: 10.3389/fnins.2023.1239764] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2023] [Accepted: 08/31/2023] [Indexed: 10/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) has shown promise in the field of intra-operative imaging and tissue differentiation as it carries the capability to provide real-time information invisible to the naked eye whilst remaining label free. Previous iterations of intra-operative HSI systems have shown limitations, either due to carrying a large footprint limiting ease of use within the confines of a neurosurgical theater environment, having a slow image acquisition time, or by compromising spatial/spectral resolution in favor of improvements to the surgical workflow. Lightfield hyperspectral imaging is a novel technique that has the potential to facilitate video rate image acquisition whilst maintaining a high spectral resolution. Our pre-clinical and first-in-human studies (IDEAL 0 and 1, respectively) demonstrate the necessary steps leading to the first in-vivo use of a real-time lightfield hyperspectral system in neuro-oncology surgery. Methods A lightfield hyperspectral camera (Cubert Ultris ×50) was integrated in a bespoke imaging system setup so that it could be safely adopted into the open neurosurgical workflow whilst maintaining sterility. Our system allowed the surgeon to capture in-vivo hyperspectral data (155 bands, 350-1,000 nm) at 1.5 Hz. Following successful implementation in a pre-clinical setup (IDEAL 0), our system was evaluated during brain tumor surgery in a single patient to remove a posterior fossa meningioma (IDEAL 1). Feedback from the theater team was analyzed and incorporated in a follow-up design aimed at implementing an IDEAL 2a study. Results Focusing on our IDEAL 1 study results, hyperspectral information was acquired from the cerebellum and associated meningioma with minimal disruption to the neurosurgical workflow. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of HSI acquisition with 100+ spectral bands at a frame rate over 1Hz in surgery. Discussion This work demonstrated that a lightfield hyperspectral imaging system not only meets the design criteria and specifications outlined in an IDEAL-0 (pre-clinical) study, but also that it can translate into clinical practice as illustrated by a successful first in human study (IDEAL 1). This opens doors for further development and optimisation, given the increasing evidence that hyperspectral imaging can provide live, wide-field, and label-free intra-operative imaging and tissue differentiation.

Abstract
Peripheral nerve damage frequently occurs in challenging surgical cases resulting in high costs and morbidity. Various optical techniques have proven effective in detecting and visually enhancing nerves, demonstrating their translational potential for assisting in nerve-sparing medical procedures. However, there is limited data characterizing the optical properties of nerves in comparison to surrounding tissues, thus limiting the optimization of optical nerve detection systems. To address this gap, the absorption and scattering properties of rat and human nerve, muscle, fat, and tendon were determined from 352-2500 nm. The optical properties highlighted an ideal region in the shortwave infrared for detecting embedded nerves, which remains a significant challenge for optical approaches. A 1000-1700 nm hyperspectral diffuse reflectance imaging system was used to confirm these results and identify optimal wavelengths for nerve imaging contrast in an in vivo rat model. Optimal nerve visualization contrast was achieved using 1190/1100 nm ratiometric imaging and was sustained for nerves embedded under ≥600 µm of fat and muscle. Overall, the results provide valuable insights for optimizing the optical contrast of nerves, including those embedded in tissue, which could lead to improved surgical guidance and nerve-sparing outcomes.

Abstract
The visualization of protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) fluorescence with the help of surgical microscopes during 5-aminolevulinic acid-mediated fluorescence-guided resection (FGR) of gliomas is still limited at the tumor margins. Hyperspectral imaging (HI) detects PPIX more sensitively but is not yet ready for intraoperative use. We illustrate the current status with three experiments and summarize our own experience using HI: (1) assessment of HI analysis algorithm using pig brain tissue, (2) a partially retrospective evaluation of our experience from HI projects, and (3) device comparison of surgical microscopy and HI. In (1), we address the problem that current algorithms for evaluating HI data are based on calibration with liquid phantoms, which have limitations. Their pH is low compared to glioma tissue; they provide only one PPIX photo state and only PPIX as fluorophore. Testing the HI algorithm with brain homogenates, we found proper correction for optical properties but not pH. Considerably more PPIX was measured at pH 9 than at pH 5. In (2), we indicate pitfalls and guide HI application. In (3), we found HI superior to the microscope for biopsy diagnosis (AUC = 0.845 ± 0.024 (cut-off 0.75 µg PPIX/ml) vs. 0.710 ± 0.035). HI thus offers potential for improved FGR.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE Current methods of producing optical phantoms are incapable of accurately capturing the wavelength-dependent properties of tissue critical for many optical modalities. AIM We aim to introduce a method of producing solid, inorganic phantoms whose wavelength-dependent optical properties can be matched to those of tissue over the wavelength range of 370 to 950 nm. APPROACH The concentration-dependent optical properties of 20 pigments were characterized and used to determine combinations that result in optimal fits compared to the target properties over the full spectrum. Phantoms matching the optical properties of muscle and nerve, the diffuse reflectance of pale and melanistic skin, and the chromophore concentrations of a computational skin model with varying oxygen saturation ( StO 2 ) were made with this method. RESULTS Both optical property phantoms were found to accurately mimic their respective tissues' absorption and scattering properties across the entire spectrum. The diffuse reflectance phantoms were able to closely approximate skin reflectance regardless of skin type. All three computational skin phantoms were found to have emulated chromophore concentrations close to the model, with an average percent error for the StO 2 of 4.31%. CONCLUSIONS This multipigment phantom platform represents a powerful tool for creating spectrally accurate tissue phantoms, which should increase the availability of standards for many optical techniques.

Abstract
A distinctive feature of this review is a critical analysis of methods and results of measurements of the optical properties of tissues in a wide spectral range from deep UV to terahertz waves. Much attention is paid to measurements of the refractive index of biological tissues and liquids, the knowledge of which is necessary for the effective application of many methods of optical imaging and diagnostics. The optical parameters of healthy and pathological tissues are presented, and the reasons for their differences are discussed, which is important for the discrimination of pathologies and the demarcation of their boundaries. When considering the interaction of terahertz radiation with tissues, the concept of an effective medium is discussed, and relaxation models of the effective optical properties of tissues are presented. Attention is drawn to the manifestation of the scattering properties of tissues in the THz range and the problems of measuring the optical properties of tissues in this range are discussed. In conclusion, a method for the dynamic analysis of the optical properties of tissues under optical clearing using an application of immersion agents is presented. The main mechanisms and technologies of optical clearing, as well as examples of the successful application for differentiation of healthy and pathological tissues, are analyzed.

Abstract
Glial tumors grow diffusely in the brain. Survival is correlated to the extent of tumor removal, but tumor borders are often invisible. Resection beyond the borders as defined by conventional methods may further improve prognosis. In this proof-of-concept study, we evaluate diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) for discrimination between glial tumors and normal brain ex vivo. DRS spectra and histology were acquired from 22 tumor samples and nine brain tissue samples retrieved from 30 patients. The content of biological chromophores and scattering features were estimated by fitting a model derived from diffusion theory to the DRS spectra. DRS parameters differed significantly between tumor and normal brain tissue. Classification using random forest yielded a sensitivity and specificity for the detection of low-grade gliomas of 82.0% and 82.7%, respectively, and the area under curve (AUC) was 0.91. Applied in a hand-held probe or biopsy needle, DRS has the potential to provide intra-operative tissue analysis.

Abstract
Precise diagnosis of the boundary and grade of tumors is especially important for surgical dissection. Recently, visible and near-infrared (Vis-NIR) absorption differences of tumors are demonstrated for a precise tumor diagnosis. Here, a template-assisted sequential printing strategy is investigated to construct lateral heterostructured Vis-NIR photodetectors, relying on the up-conversion nanoparticles (UCNPs)/perovskite arrays. Under the sequential printing process, the synergistic effect and co-confinement are demonstrated to induce the UCNPs to cover both sides of the perovskite microwire. The side-wrapped lateral heterogeneous UCNPs/perovskite structure exhibits more satisfactory responsiveness to Vis-NIR light than the common fully wrapped structure, due to sufficient visible-light-harvesting ability. The Vis-NIR photodetectors with R reaching 150 mA W-1 at 980 nm and 1084 A W-1 at 450 nm are employed for the rapid classification of glioma. The detection accuracy rate of 99.3% is achieved through a multimodal analysis covering the Vis-NIR light, which provides a reliable basis for glioma grade diagnosis. This work provides a concrete example for the application of photodetectors in tumor detection and surgical diagnosis.
