Abstract
Objective This study aimed to explore the hemodynamic changes before and after anastomosis in patients with Moyamoya disease (MMD) using multiple models. Methods We prospectively enrolled 42 MMD patients who underwent combined revascularization. Intraoperative FLOW800 was performed before and after anastomosis, and parameters was collected, including maximum intensity, delay time, rise time, slope, blood flow index, and microvascular transit time (MVTT). Additionally, preoperative and postoperative hemodynamic parameters were measured using color Doppler ultrasonography (CDUS), including peak systolic velocity, end-diastolic velocity, resistance index (RI), pulsatility index (PI), and flow volume. Subsequently, the correlation between FLOW800 and CDUS parameters was explored. Results A total of 42 participants took part with an average age of 46.5 years, consisting of 19 men and 23 women. The analysis of FLOW800 indicated that both the delay time and rise time experienced a substantial decrease in both the recipient artery and vein. Additionally, the MVTT was found to be significantly reduced after the surgery (5.7 ± 2.2 s vs. 4.9 ± 1.6, p = 0.021). However, no statistically significant differences were observed among the other parameters. Similarly, all postoperative parameters in CDUS hemodynamics exhibited significant alterations in comparison to the preoperative values. The correlation analysis between FLOW800 and CDUS parameters indicated a significant association between MVTT and RI and PI, no significant relationships were found among the other parameters in the two groups. Conclusion The hemodynamic outcomes of the donor and recipient arteries demonstrated significant changes following bypass surgery. The parameter of time appears to be more precise and sensitive in assessing hemodynamics using FLOW800. Multiple evaluations of hemodynamics could offer substantial evidence for perioperative management.

Quantitative perfusion assessment using indocyanine green during surgery - current applications and recommendations for future use. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2023; 408:67. [PMID: 36700999 PMCID: PMC9879827 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-023-02780-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2022] [Accepted: 12/12/2022] [Indexed: 01/27/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Incorrect assessment of tissue perfusion carries a significant risk of complications in surgery. The use of near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging with Indocyanine Green (ICG) presents a possible solution. However, only through quantification of the fluorescence signal can an objective and reproducible evaluation of tissue perfusion be obtained. This narrative review aims to provide an overview of the available quantification methods for perfusion assessment using ICG NIR fluorescence imaging and to present an overview of current clinically utilized software implementations. METHODS PubMed was searched for clinical studies on the quantification of ICG NIR fluorescence imaging to assess tissue perfusion. Data on the utilized camera systems and performed methods of quantification were collected. RESULTS Eleven software programs for quantifying tissue perfusion using ICG NIR fluorescence imaging were identified. Five of the 11 programs have been described in three or more clinical studies, including Flow® 800, ROIs Software, IC Calc, SPY-Q™, and the Quest Research Framework®. In addition, applying normalization to fluorescence intensity analysis was described for two software programs. CONCLUSION Several systems or software solutions provide a quantification of ICG fluorescence; however, intraoperative applications are scarce and quantification methods vary abundantly. In the widespread search for reliable quantification of perfusion with ICG NIR fluorescence imaging, standardization of quantification methods and data acquisition is essential.

Abstract
Cerebral revascularization surgery has been advanced by the refinement of several adjunctive tools. These tools include perioperative blood thinners, intraoperative spasmolytic agents, electrophysiological monitoring, and methods for assessing bypass patency or marking arteriotomies. Despite the array of options, the proper usage and comparative advantages of different complements in cerebral bypass have not been well-cataloged elsewhere. In this literature review, we describe the appropriate usage, benefits, and limitations of various bypass adjuncts. Understanding these adjuncts can help surgeons ensure that they receive reliable intraoperative information about bypass function and minimize the risk of serious complications. Overall, this review provides a succinct reference for neurosurgeons on various cerebrovascular bypass adjuncts.

Abstract
(1) Background: Near-infrared fluorescence imaging is a technique capable of assessing tissue perfusion and has been adopted in various fields including plastic surgery, vascular surgery, coronary arterial disease, and gastrointestinal surgery. While the usefulness of this technique has been broadly explored, there is a large variety in the calculation of perfusion parameters. In this systematic review, we aim to provide a detailed overview of current perfusion parameters, and determine the perfusion parameters with the most potential for application in near-infrared fluorescence imaging. (2) Methods: A comprehensive search of the literature was performed in Pubmed, Embase, Medline, and Cochrane Review. We included all clinical studies referencing near-infrared perfusion parameters. (3) Results: A total of 1511 articles were found, of which, 113 were suitable for review, with a final selection of 59 articles. Near-infrared fluorescence imaging parameters are heterogeneous in their correlation to perfusion. Time-related parameters appear superior to absolute intensity parameters in a clinical setting. (4) Conclusions: This literature review demonstrates the variety of parameters selected for the quantification of perfusion in near-infrared fluorescence imaging.

Abstract
BACKGROUND One of the most critical steps in surgery for spinal intramedullary ependymomas is the resection of small feeding arteries from the anterior spinal artery with anatomical preservation of the normal circulation of the ventral spinal cord. OBJECTIVE To quantitatively analyze the microcirculation of the ventral spinal cord by near-infrared indocyanine green videoangiography (ICG-VA) after the spinal intramedullary ependymoma resection. METHODS This retrospective study included 12 patients (7 male and 5 female; average age 55.2 years, range 36-79 years). Patients' neurological conditions were assessed based on the modified McCormick functional schema of grade 1 (neurologically normal) to 5 (severe deficit). Postoperative functional assessment was conducted at least 3 months after surgery. Quantitative analysis of vascular flow dynamics was carried out following spinal intramedullary ependymoma resection. Fluorescence intensities were measured and the indocyanine green (ICG) intensity-time curves were analyzed and compared with the functional outcomes after surgery. RESULTS Microscopically total or subtotal resection of the intramedullary ependymoma was achieved in all cases. Average peak time on ICG-VA was significantly shorter in the postoperative functional grade 1 to 2 group than in the postoperative functional grade 3 to 5 group, but there was no significant difference in average peak intensity between the 2 groups. Postoperative functional grade and the peak time of ICG, but not peak intensity, appeared correlated. CONCLUSION To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report showing that quantitative analysis of ICG-VA may predict functional outcomes after spinal intramedullary ependymoma resection.

Decreased cortical perfusion in areas with blood-brain barrier dysfunction in Moyamoya disease. Acta Neurochir (Wien) 2020; 162:2565-2572.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently, several studies have focused on the relationship between blood-brain barrier (BBB) impairment and the etiology of Moyamoya disease (MMD). However, in vivo studies investigating about BBB impairment and cortical perfusion in MMD patients were really rare. METHODS This study included 16 patients diagnosed with MMD and 9 patients with atherosclerotic cerebrovascular disease (ACVD); all of who were treated with superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass. Cortical perfusion was assessed using intraoperative indocyanine green (ICG) videoangiography by calculating the blood flow index (BFI). In addition, we used sodium fluorescein (NaFl) to evaluate the permeability of BBB in vivo during operation. RESULTS The results showed that BBB impairment in MMD patients was more significant than that in ACVD patients, whereas, the cortical perfusion was comparable between two groups. BFI was significantly improved after STA-MCA bypass both in the MMD group (post-operation vs pre-operation: 109.2 ± 67.7 vs 64.3 ± 35.0, p = 0.004) and the ACVD group (post-operation vs pre-operation: 137.6 ± 89.6 vs 90.8 ± 58.3, p = 0.015). Moreover, BFI was significantly decreased in the cortex with BBB impairment as compared with that in the cortex with intact BBB (impaired BBB vs intact BBB: 55.7 ± 26.5 vs 87.6 ± 55.1, p = 0.025). Following bypass, the cortical perfusion significantly improved in the area of BBB impairment (post-operation vs pre-operation: 93.8 ± 75.2 vs 55.7 ± 26.5, p = 0.004), which was not observed in the BBB intact area (post-operation vs pre-operation: 92.4 ± 50.4 vs 87.6 ± 55.1, p = 0.58). CONCLUSION In summary, we observed that BBB impairment in MMD patients was more significant than that in ACVD patients. This study also demonstrated for the first time that cortical perfusion was significantly decreased in the cortex with BBB impairment as compared with that in the cortex with intact BBB in MMD patients. We also observed that After STA-MCA bypass, the cortical perfusion was significantly improved in the cortex with BBB impairment. These results may provide a new insight for BBB impairment and cortical perfusion in the etiology of MMD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Revascularization strategies for complex cerebral aneurysms are largely based on subjective interpretation of flow demands, or indirect measures of perfusion in at-risk territories. Indocyanine Green -based flow analyses ((ICG-BFA); Flow 800, Carl Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany) provide a real-time, semiquantitative measure of intraoperative cortical perfusion during cerebral bypass surgery for complex aneurysms. OBJECTIVE To determine the utility of intraoperative ICG-BFA for assessing cortical perfusion in at-risk territories during cerebral bypass for complex aneurysms requiring vessel sacrifice. METHODS Retrospective analysis of consecutive patients from a prospective, single-institution open cerebrovascular database. RESULTS Intraoperative ICG-BFA confirmed adequate cortical perfusion in 2 patients with fusiform posterior circulation aneurysms, treated with a posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA)-PICA and occipital artery (OA)-to-third segment of the posterior cerebral artery (P3) bypass with proximal vessel sacrifice, respectively. ICG-BFA was used in a third patient that underwent clip reconstruction/ intracranial-to-intracranial bypass for a large middle cerebral artery (MCA) bifurcation aneurysm requiring sacrifice of the temporal M2 branch. In this case, a frontal M3 to temporal M3 side-to-side anastomosis was created to arborize the MCA tree and allow filling of both M2 territories through a single M2 branch. After aneurysm reconstruction, ICG-BFA identified an inadvertent occlusion of the frontal M2 that left the entire MCA distribution reliant on collateral flow but did not cause a neuromonitoring change. Repeat ICG-BFA after clip re-arrangement demonstrated aneurysm occlusion and equal flow in both frontal and temporal MCA cortical distributions from the arborization. CONCLUSION ICG-BFA is a useful adjunct for intraoperative cortical flow assessment during cerebral revascularization for complex aneurysms requiring vessel sacrifice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intraoperative prediction of postoperative cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) after cerebrovascular bypass surgery is challenging. OBJECTIVE To conduct a retrospective case-control study with indocyanine green (ICG) intensity analysis of the superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass and investigate whether its washout pattern might be a marker for intraoperative prediction of CHS. METHODS Between 2012 and 2018, 6 of 112 patients (5.4%) that underwent STA-MCA bypass exhibited CHS. We selected 5 patients with CHS (3 with atherosclerotic cerebrovascular disease [ASCVD] and 2 with moyamoya) and 15 patients without CHS (60% ASCVD and 40% moyamoya) as a matched control group. During prebypass and postbypass, washout times (WTs) for the first 10%, 25%, 50%, and 75% of maximum ICG intensity measured in the whole-camera field were compared between groups. The changes in WT (ΔWT) from prebypass to postbypass for each ICG intensity level were compared between groups. The cutoff ΔWTs, sensitivities, and specificities were also calculated. RESULTS Postbypass WTs were significantly longer in the CHS group than the control group at all ICG intensities (P < .05). ΔWT was significantly greater in the CHS group than the control group for the first 10%, 25%, and 50% ICG intensities (P < .001). A cutoff ΔWT of ≥2.66 s for the first 50% ICG intensity showed a sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 100%. CONCLUSION We found that a ΔWT ≥2.66 s for the first 50% ICG intensity could be an intraoperative predictive factor for CHS.

Abstract
Cerebral hyperperfusion (HP) complicates the postoperative course of patients with moyamoya disease (MMD) after direct revascularization surgery. Crossed cerebellar diaschisis (CCD) has been considered to be rarely associated with HP after revascularization surgery. This study aimed to describe the clinical features and factors associated with CCD secondary to cerebral HP after revascularization surgery for MMD. We analyzed 150 consecutive hemispheres including 101 in adults and 49 in pediatric patients who underwent combined direct and indirect bypass for MMD. Using single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), serial cerebral blood flow (CBF) was measured immediately after the surgery and on postoperative days 2 and 7. Pre- and postoperative voxel-based analysis of SPECT findings was performed to compare the changes in regional CBF. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to test the effect of multiple variables on CCD. Asymptomatic and symptomatic HP was observed in 41.3% (62/150) and 16.7% (25/150) of the operated hemispheres, respectively. CCD was observed in 18.4% (16/87) of these hemispheres with radiological HP. Multivariate analysis revealed that the occurrence of CCD was significantly associated with symptomatic HP (p = 0.0015). Voxel-based analysis showed that the CBF increase in the operated frontal cortex, and the CBF reduction in the contralateral cerebellar hemisphere on day 7 were significantly larger in symptomatic HP than in asymptomatic HP (median 11.3% vs 7.5%; - 6.0% vs - 1.7%, respectively). CCD secondary to postoperative HP is more common than anticipated in MMD. CCD could potentially be used as an indicator of severe postoperative HP in patients with MMD.

J Neurosurg 2019; 130:1367-1375.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Transient neurological events (TNEs) occur frequently in the acute phase after direct bypass surgery for moyamoya disease (MMD), but there is currently no way to predict them. FlowInsight is a specialized software for analyzing indocyanine green (ICG) videoangiography taken with a surgical microscope. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether intraoperative evaluation of local hemodynamic changes around anastomotic sites using FlowInsight could predict the incidence and duration of TNEs. METHODS From patients who were diagnosed with MMD in our hospital between August 2014 and March 2017 and who underwent superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery bypass surgery, we investigated 25 hemispheres (in 22 patients) in which intraoperative ICG analysis was performed using FlowInsight. To evaluate the local cerebral hemodynamics before and after anastomosis, regions of interest were set at 3 locations on the brain surface around the anastomotic site, and the mean cerebral blood flow (CBF), mean gradation (Grad), mean transit time (MTT), and mean time to peak (TTP) were calculated from the 3 regions of interest. Furthermore, the change rate in CBF (ΔCBF [%]) was calculated using the formula (postanastomosis mean CBF - preanastomosis mean CBF)/preanastomosis mean CBF. ΔGrad (%), ΔMTT (%), and ΔTTP (%) were similarly calculated. RESULTS Postoperative stroke without TNE occurred in 2 of the 25 hemispheres. These 2 hemispheres (in 2 patients) were excluded from the study, and data from the remaining 23 hemispheres (in 20 patients) were analyzed. For each parameter (ΔCBF, ΔGrad, ΔMTT, and ΔTTP) calculated by FlowInsight, the difference between the groups with and without TNEs was significant. The median values for ΔCBF and ΔGrad were significantly higher in the TNE group than in the no-TNE group (ΔCBF 30.13 vs 3.54, p = 0.0106; ΔGrad 62.05 vs 10.78, p = 0.00435), whereas the median values for ΔMTT and ΔTTP were significantly lower in the TNE group (ΔMTT -16.90 vs -7.393, p = 0.023; ΔTTP -29.07 vs -7.02, p = 0.00342). Comparison of the area under the curve (AUC) for each parameter showed that ΔTTP had the highest AUC and was the parameter with the highest diagnostic accuracy (AUC 0.857). The Youden index revealed that the optimal cutoff value of ΔTTP was -11.61 (sensitivity 77.8%, specificity 71.4%) as a predictor of TNEs. In addition, Spearman's rank correlation coefficients were calculated, and ΔCBF, ΔGrad, ΔMTT, and ΔTTP each showed a strong correlation with the duration of TNEs. The larger the change in each parameter, the longer the TNEs persisted. CONCLUSIONS Intraoperative ICG videoangiography findings were correlated with the occurrence and duration of TNEs after direct bypass surgery for MMD. Screening for cases at high risk of TNEs can be achieved by ICG analysis using FlowInsight.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Indocyanine green (ICG) videoangiography can assess cerebral blood flow, but results are primarily qualitative. FLOW 800 software measures fluorescence dynamics and creates a semiquantitative color delay map for assessment of relative sequence of blood flow within the vasculature. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 23 consecutive patients for whom FLOW 800 ICG videoangiography was used. They harbored aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF), or hemangioblastoma. Patients' characteristics, FLOW 800 data, and clinical findings were recorded. Color map data were readily available intraoperatively and guided surgery. RESULTS The cohort included 10 patients with AVMs, 11 with aneurysms, 1 with dAVF, and 1 with hemangioblastoma. Approximately two thirds of patients underwent intraoperative angiography. FLOW 800 data provided semiquantitative data regarding localization, flow status in major feeding arteries, and dominance of the arterialized draining veins for AVMs, more than data from ICG videoangiography alone. For complex aneurysms, color maps confirmed relative adequate flow in parent and branching vessels. For the foramen magnum dAVF, the location of the dominant transdural connection was appreciated only via flow analysis. Flow analysis created the blood flow map of a large complex solid brainstem hemangioblastoma and guided devascularization. All FLOW 800 findings agreed with intraoperative and postoperative angiography. CONCLUSIONS ICG videoangiography with FLOW 800 analysis can provide semiquantitative and relative flow magnitude data that are efficient and noninvasive. This process helps identify early arterialized veins and their flow status during AVM and dAVF surgery and can confirm adequate relative flow within branching vessels during aneurysm surgery when clip-induced stenosis is suspected.

Assessment of Hemodynamic Changes and Hyperperfusion Risk After Extracranial-to-Intracranial Bypass Surgery Using Intraoperative Indocyanine Green-Based Flow Analysis. World Neurosurg 2018; 114:352-360. [PMID: 29626683 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2018.03.189] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2018] [Revised: 03/26/2018] [Accepted: 03/27/2018] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intraoperative blood flow assessments during cerebral bypass would ideally assess vessel patency, downstream perfusion, and risk of postoperative hyperperfusion syndrome (HPS). Previous studies using indocyanine green-based flow analyses (ICG-BFA) have identified multiple parameters that can intraoperatively track bypass-related changes in cerebral perfusion and potentially predict postoperative risk of HPS. Herein, we determine the most robust parameter and anatomic location for intraoperative ICG-BFA assessment of bypass-related perfusion changes and prediction of postoperative risk of HPS. METHODS Retrospective analysis of an institutional review board-approved prospective database identified patients undergoing superficial temporal artery-to-middle cerebral artery bypass. Demographic and clinical information, as well as manually calculated and automated pre- and postbypass intraoperative ICG-BFA data from cortical, arterial, and venous regions of interest were recorded and analyzed. RESULTS Seven patients underwent superficial temporal artery-to-middle cerebral artery bypass (4 Moyamoya, 3 carotid occlusions). Average age was 48.2 ± 13.9 years (3 female, 4 male). Although all parameters measured showed trends toward improvement postbypass, only changes in arterial and venous automated ICG-BFA slope (also known as blood flow index [maximum intensity/rise time]) reached significance. None of the patients experienced symptomatic HPS, despite 5 of 7 (71.4%) having an increased HPS risk based on previously published ICG-BFA data. CONCLUSIONS ICG-BFA has utility for the intraoperative assessment of bypass-related changes in cerebral perfusion, with automated blood flow index being the most robustly affected parameter. Although previously published ICG-BFA indices did not predict the development of symptomatic postoperative HPS, larger-scale studies correlating observed ICG-BFA changes with risk of HPS are warranted.

Abstract
RATIONALE The increasingly intraoperative use of indocyanine green (ICG) means that it is necessary to be aware of both its advantages and potential adverse effects. PATIENT CONCERNS A 76-year-old woman developed symptoms of sudden severe hemodynamic instability while undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting with ICG injection to detect the patency of the graft. The main clinical manifestations were a sudden drop in blood pressure and increased heart rate. DIAGNOSES Severe side effects or allergic reaction of ICG. INTERVENTIONS Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) was established, and an intra-aortic balloon pump was implanted in the left femoral artery after intravenous epinephrine and manual cardiac compression failed. OUTCOMES The patient was extubated and transferred to the general ward on the third postoperative day. LESSONS Invasive blood pressure monitoring should be carried out in patients undergoing intraoperative ICG administration. Anesthetists should pay close attention to the patient's hemodynamic fluctuations, and effective emergency measures should be implemented immediately if severe hemodynamic instability occurs.

Abstract
Neurovascular surgery is a broad and challenging, yet exciting field within neurologic surgery. The neurovascular surgeon must be meticulous; because the brain and spinal cord are unforgiving to ischemic insults. Along with the pressures of this demanding subspecialty comes the potential to help patients recover from potentially devastating pathology to go on and lead normal, healthy lives. Several intraoperative imaging modalities are available to help maximize treatment success while reducing risk. This article reviews each of these modalities, including digital subtraction angiography, fluorescence angiography, Doppler ultrasonography, laser Doppler, laser speckle contrast imaging, neuronavigation, and neuroendoscopy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Hyperperfusion syndrome (HPS) is a notable complication that causes various neurological symptoms after superficial temporal artery (STA)-middle cerebral artery (MCA) bypass surgery for moyamoya disease (MMD). The authors used intraoperative indocyanine green (ICG) videoangiography to measure the change in microvascular transit time (MVTT) after bypass surgery. An analysis was then conducted to identify the correlation between change in MVTT and presence of postoperative HPS. METHODS This study included 105 hemispheres of 81 patients with MMD who underwent STA-MCA single bypass surgery between January 2010 and January 2015. Intraoperative ICG videoangiography was performed before and after bypass surgery. The MVTT was calculated from the ICG time intensity curve recorded in the pial arterioles and venules. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to test the effect of multiple variables, including the change in MVTT after bypass surgery, on postoperative HPS. RESULTS Postoperative HPS developed in 28 (26.7%) of the 105 hemispheres operated on. MVTT was reduced significantly after bypass surgery (prebypass 5.34 ± 2.00 sec vs postbypass 4.12 ± 1.60 sec; p < 0.001). The difference between prebypass and postbypass MVTT values, defined as ΔMVTT, was significantly greater in the HPS group than in the non-HPS group (2.55 ± 2.66 sec vs 0.75 ± 1.78 sec; p < 0.001). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed that the optimal cutoff point of ΔMVTT was 2.6 seconds (sensitivity 46.4% and specificity 85.7% as a predictor of postoperative HPS). A ΔMVTT > 2.6 seconds was an independent predictor of HPS in multivariate analysis (hazard ratio 4.88, 95% CI 1.76-13.57; p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS MVTT in patients with MMD was reduced significantly after bypass surgery. Patients with a ΔMVTT > 2.6 seconds tended to develop postoperative HPS. Because ΔMVTT can be easily measured during surgery, it is a useful diagnostic tool for identifying patients at high risk for HPS after STA-MCA bypass surgery for MMD.

Abstract
Moyamoya disease leads to the formation of stenosis in the cerebrovasculature. A superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) bypass is an effective treatment for the disease, yet it is usually associated with postoperative cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS). This study aimed to evaluate cerebral hemodynamic changes immediately after surgery and assess whether a semiquantitative analysis of an intraoperative magnetic resonance perfusion-weighted image (PWI) is useful for predicting postoperative CHS. Fourteen patients who underwent the STA-MCA bypass surgery were included in this study. An atlas-based registration method was employed for studying hemodynamics in different cerebral regions. Pre- versus intraoperative and group-wise comparisons were conducted to evaluate the hemodynamic changes. A postoperative increase in relative cerebral blood flow (CBF) at the terminal MCA territory (P = 0.035) and drop in relative mean-time-transit at the central MCA territory (P = 0.012) were observed in all patients. However, a significant raise in the increasing ratio of relative-CBF at the terminal MCA territory was only found in CHS patients (P = 0.023). The cerebrovascular changes of the patients after revascularization treatment were confirmed. Intraoperative PWI might be helpful in predicting the change in relative-CBF at MCA terminal territory which might indicate a risk of CHS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Indocyanine green (ICG) is a dye used in medicine since the mid-1950s for a variety of applications in in cardiology, ophthalmology, and neurosurgery; however, its fluorescent properties have only recently been used in the intraoperative evaluation of tissue perfusion. METHOD A literature review was conducted on the characterization and employment of ICG within the medical field. Historical and current context of ICG was examined while also considering implications for its future use. RESULTS ICG is a relatively nontoxic, unstable compound bound by albumin in the intravascular space until rapid clearance by the liver. It has widespread uses in hepatic, cardiac, and ophthalmologic studies, and its use in analyzing tissue perfusion and identifying sentinel lymph nodes in cancer staging is gaining popularity. CONCLUSIONS ICG has myriad applications and poses low risk to the patient. Its historical uses have contributed to medical knowledge, and it is now undergoing investigation for quantifying tissue perfusion, providing targeted therapies, and intraoperative identification of neurovascular anatomy, ophthalmic structures, and sentinel lymph nodes. New applications of ICG may lead to reduction in postoperative wound-related complications, more effective ophthalmologic procedures, and better detection and treatment of cancer cells.

Abstract
We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of FLOW 800 (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Thuringia, Germany) with indocyanine green (ICG) videoangiography for the quantitative assessment of flow dynamics in spinal dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) surgeries. We prospectively enrolled nine patients with spinal dAVF diagnosed within the past year and performed FLOW 800 analyses using ICG videoangiography before and after surgical obliteration of the fistula. A color-coded map was semi-automatically generated by FLOW 800 and used for high-resolution visualization of the vasculature and instant interpretation of the dynamic flow changes. The FLOW 800-specific hemodynamic parameters were employed for real-time measurements of parenchymal perfusion alterations. Overall, 18 intraoperative FLOW 800 analyses using ICG videoangiography were performed in nine patients. The color-coded map aided the detection and complete obliteration of the fistulas in all patients and the results were verified by postoperative spinal digital subtraction angiography. The transit time parameter was significantly shorter in the preobliteration phase than in the postobliteration phase (p < 0.01), the rise time parameter exhibited the same pattern (p = 0.08) and maximum intensity and blood flow index were not significantly different between these phases. FLOW 800 with ICG videoangiography provided an intuitive and objective understanding of blood flow dynamics intraoperatively and enabled easy and confident identification and treatment of this pathology. The FLOW 800-specific hemodynamic analyses provided additional perfusion information that enabled real-time measurements of parenchymal perfusion alterations. FLOW 800 with ICG videoangiography is useful for intraoperative quantitative assessment of flow dynamics, facilitating safety and confidence in the treatment of spinal dAVF.

Abstract
AIM: To evaluate the changes of intracranial blood flow after carotid artery stenting (CAS), using the flow assessment application “Flow-Insight”, which was developed in our department.
METHODS: Twenty patients treated by CAS participated in this study. We analyzed the change in concentration of the contrast media at the anterior-posterior and profile view image with the flow assessment application “Flow-Insight”. And we compared the results with N-isopropyl-p-[123I] iodoamphetamine-single-photon emission computed tomography (IMP SPECT) performed before and after the treatment.
RESULTS: From this study, 200% of the parameter “blood flow” change in the post/pre-treatment is suggested as the critical line of the hyperperfusion syndrome arise. Although the observed blood flow increase in the digital subtraction angiography system did not strongly correlate with the rate of increase of SPECT, the “Flow-Insight” reflected the rate of change of the vessels well. However, for patients with reduced reserve blood flow before CAS, a highly elevated site was in agreement with the site analysis results.
CONCLUSION: We concluded that the cerebral angiography flow assessment application was able to more finely reveal hyperperfusion regions in the brain after CAS compared to SPECT.

Abstract
There are two main approaches to intraoperative monitoring in neurosurgery. One approach is related to fluorescent phenomena and the other is related to oscillatory neuronal activity. We developed novel techniques to visualize blood flow (BF) conditions in real time, based on indocyanine green videography (ICG-VG) and the electrophysiological phenomenon of high gamma activity (HGA). We investigated the use of ICG-VG in four patients with moyamoya disease and two with arteriovenous malformation (AVM), and we investigated the use of real-time HGA mapping in four patients with brain tumors who underwent lesion resection with awake craniotomy. Real-time data processing of ICG-VG was based on perfusion imaging, which generated parameters including arrival time (AT), mean transit time (MTT), and BF of brain surface vessels. During awake craniotomy, we analyzed the frequency components of brain oscillation and performed real-time HGA mapping to identify functional areas. Processed results were projected on a wireless monitor linked to the operating microscope. After revascularization for moyamoya disease, AT and BF were significantly shortened and increased, respectively, suggesting hyperperfusion. Real-time fusion images on the wireless monitor provided anatomical, BF, and functional information simultaneously, and allowed the resection of AVMs under the microscope. Real-time HGA mapping during awake craniotomy rapidly indicated the eloquent areas of motor and language function and significantly shortened the operation time. These novel techniques, which we introduced might improve the reliability of intraoperative monitoring and enable the development of rational and objective surgical strategies.

Abstract
Background: Intraoperative qualitative indocyanine green (ICG) angiography has been used in cerebrovascular surgery. Hyperperfusion may lead to neurological complications after superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) anastomosis. The purpose of this study is to quantitatively evaluate intraoperative cerebral perfusion using microscope-integrated dynamic ICG fluorescence analysis, and to assess whether this value predicts hyperperfusion syndrome (HPS) after STA-MCA anastomosis. Methods: Ten patients undergoing STA-MCA anastomosis due to unilateral major cerebral artery occlusive disease were included. Ten patients with normal cerebral perfusion served as controls. The ICG transit curve from six regions of interest (ROIs) on the cortex, corresponding to ROIs on positron emission tomography (PET) study, was recorded. Maximum intensity (IMAX), cerebral blood flow index (CBFi), rise time (RT), and time to peak (TTP) were evaluated. Results: RT/TTP, but not IMAX or CBFi, could differentiate between control and study subjects. RT/TTP correlated (|r| = 0.534-0.807; P < 0.01) with mean transit time (MTT)/MTT ratio in the ipsilateral to contralateral hemisphere by PET study. Bland–Altman analysis showed a wide limit of agreement between RT and MTT and between TTP and MTT. The ratio of RT before and after bypass procedures was significantly lower in patients with postoperative HPS than in patients without postoperative HPS (0.60 ± 0.032 and 0.80 ± 0.056, respectively; P = 0.017). The ratio of TTP was also significantly lower in patients with postoperative HPS than in patients without postoperative HPS (0.64 ± 0.081 and 0.85 ± 0.095, respectively; P = 0.017). Conclusions: Time-dependent intraoperative parameters from the ICG transit curve provide quantitative information regarding cerebral circulation time with quality and utility comparable to information obtained by PET. These parameters may help predict the occurrence of postoperative HPS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative hyperperfusion is a potential complication of the direct bypass procedure for moyamoya disease (MMD). However, no reliable modality is available yet for the prediction of postoperative hyperperfusion during surgery for MMD. This study aimed to investigate whether semiquantitative analysis of indocyanine green (ICG) videoangiography could contribute to the prediction of postoperative hyperperfusion in MMD. METHODS This study included 12 hemispheres from 10 patients who underwent surgical revascularization for MMD. Intraoperative ICG videoangiography was performed before and after a direct bypass procedure. The ICG intensity-time curves were semiquantitatively analyzed to evaluate cortical perfusion by calculating the blood flow index (BFI). Using single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), postoperative cerebral blood flow measurements were performed thrice: immediately, and 2 and 7 days after surgery. RESULTS BFI significantly increased from 21.3 ± 10.5 to 38.4 ± 20.0 after bypass procedures in all the hemispheres (p < 0.01). The ratio of BFI before and after the bypass procedure was 2.4 ± 2.0, ranging from 0.5 to 8.0. Postoperative hyperperfusion was observed in nine of the 12 operated hemispheres within 7 days after surgery. Of these, three hemispheres developed hyperperfusion immediately after surgery. In the adult cases, the increase in the ratio of BFI after bypass was significantly greater in those who developed hyperperfusion immediately after surgery than in those who did not (6.5 ± 0.5 vs. 1.8 ± 2.1, p < 0.01). In contrast, no significant increase in BFI was observed in the pediatric MMD patients who experienced immediate hyperperfusion. No correlation between the changes in BFI and the occurrence of delayed hyperperfusion was observed. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that semiquantitative analysis of BFI by intraoperative ICG videoangiography is useful in evaluating changes in cortical perfusion after bypass procedures for MMD and can predict the occurrence of early-onset hyperperfusion in MMD patients after direct bypass.

Indocyanine green videoangiography methodological variations: review. Neurosurg Rev 2014; 38:49-57; discussion 57. [PMID: 25171963 DOI: 10.1007/s10143-014-0570-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2014] [Revised: 06/22/2014] [Accepted: 07/22/2014] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
Indocyanine green videoangiography (ICGVA) procedures have become widespread within the spectrum of microsurgical techniques for neurovascular pathologies. We have conducted a review to identify and assess the impact of all of the methodological variations of conventional ICGVA applied in the field of neurovascular pathology that have been published to date in the English literature. A total of 18 studies were included in this review, identifying four primary methodological variants compared to conventional ICGVA: techniques based on the transient occlusion, intra-arterial ICG administration via catheters, use of endoscope system with a filter to collect florescence of ICG, and quantitative fluorescence analysis. These variants offer some possibilities for resolving the limitations of the conventional technique (first, the vascular structure to be analyzed must be exposed and second, vascular filling with ICG follows an additive pattern) and allow qualitatively superior information to be obtained during surgery. Advantages and disadvantages of each procedure are discussed. More case studies with a greater number of patients are needed to compare the different procedures with their gold standard, in order to establish these results consistently.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative cerebral hyperperfusion (HP) is a notable complication that occurs more frequently in moyamoya disease (MMD) than in atherosclerosis. This study aimed to clarify the characteristics of intraoperative indocyanine green (ICG) videoangiography in MMD and atherosclerotic disease in terms of postoperative HP. METHODS This prospective study included 47 patients with 60 sides that underwent superior temporal artery (STA)-middle cerebral artery (MCA) single bypass. ICG videoangiography was performed after revascularization. The ICG time intensity curve was recorded in the STA, proximal MCA, distal MCA, and superficial Sylvian vein, and the angiographic differences among adult MMD, pediatric MMD, and atherosclerosis were analyzed. RESULTS Twenty-two patients (27 sides) had adult MMD, 14 patients (22 sides) had pediatric MMD, and 11 patients (11 sides) had atherosclerosis. Postoperative HP was significantly higher in adult MMD (40.7 %) than in pediatric MMD (18.2 %) and atherosclerosis (0 %). Adult MMD with HP was associated with a longer ICG peak time (P < 0.001). There was no correlation between the ICG peak time and preoperative cerebral blood flow or vascular reserve. The ratio of the vessel caliber was also higher in adult MMD with HP (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS ICG videoangiography provides different characteristics of bypass flow among adult MMD, pediatric MMD, and atherosclerosis. Poor run-off and stagnation of blood flow from the STA might contribute to postoperative HP in MMD. The occurrence of postoperative HP in MMD could depend on two factors: donor STA size and poor run-off and integrity of the blood brain barrier in the recipient MCA.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND:
FLOW 800 delivers a color-coded map for snapshot visualization of the temporal distribution dynamics after indocyanine green angiography with post hoc calculation of FLOW 800-specific hemodynamic parameters. However, the value of these parameters regarding quantitative flow assessment remains unclear.
OBJECTIVE:
To determine the value of FLOW 800-specific hemodynamic parameters in neurosurgical patients that permit assessment of hemodynamic changes within the microcirculation and macrocirculation.
METHODS:
FLOW 800 was performed in 25 patients undergoing superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery bypass grafting and in 5 patients undergoing high- or intermediate-flow bypass grafting. The time to half-maximum fluorescence (t1/2max) and the cerebral blood flow index were calculated in the recipient vessel (macrocirculation) and the cortical territory (microcirculation) surrounding the anastomosis. For further evaluation, FLOW 800-specific hemodynamic parameters were compared with cortical laser speckle imaging and quantitative Doppler flow within the graft.
RESULTS:
FLOW 800 provided color-coded information on the temporospatial distribution dynamics of the dye with excellent assessment of bypass patency. In the recipient vessel and in the cortical territory surrounding the anastomosis, FLOW 800 detected hemodynamic changes after superficial temporal artery to middle cerebral artery bypass grafting in terms of a significant decrease in t1/2max and increase in cerebral blood flow index. Interestingly, comparison of t1/2max with semiquantitative laser speckle imaging-specific cortical perfusion within the microcirculation demonstrated poor agreement, and neither t1/2max nor the cerebral blood flow index within the graft correlated with quantitative graft flow assessed by Doppler.
CONCLUSION:
FLOW 800 may detect procedure-related hemodynamic changes within the microcirculation and macrocirculation but should not be used as a stand-alone tool for quantitative flow assessment.
