BIOMEDICAL OPTICS EXPRESS 2024; 15:641-655. [PMID: 38404312 PMCID: PMC10890856 DOI: 10.1364/boe.506084] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2023] [Revised: 11/14/2023] [Accepted: 11/14/2023] [Indexed: 02/27/2024]
Abstract
An adequate supply of oxygen-rich blood is vital to maintain cell homeostasis, cellular metabolism, and overall tissue health. While classical methods of measuring tissue ischemia are often invasive, localized and require skin contact or contrast agents, spectral imaging shows promise as a non-invasive, wide field, and contrast-free approach. We evaluate three novel reflectance-based spectral indices from the 460 - 840 nm spectral range. With the aim of enabling real time visualization of tissue ischemia, information is extracted from only 2-3 spectral bands. Video-rate spectral data was acquired from arm occlusion experiments in 27 healthy volunteers. The performance of the indices was evaluated against binary Support Vector Machine (SVM) classification of healthy versus ischemic skin tissue, two other indices from literature, and tissue oxygenation estimated using spectral unmixing. Robustness was tested by evaluating these under various lighting conditions and on both the dorsal and palmar sides of the hand. A novel index with real-time capabilities using reflectance information only from 547 nm and 556 nm achieves an average classification accuracy of 88.48, compared to 92.65 using an SVM trained on all available wavelengths. Furthermore, the index has a higher accuracy compared to reference methods and its time dynamics compare well against the expected clinical responses. This holds promise for robust real-time detection of tissue ischemia, possibly contributing to improved patient care and clinical outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The Hyperview® is a hyperspectral camera, which can be used to assess the microcirculation of patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and/or diabetes mellitus (DM). It measures local tissue oxygenation in concentrations of oxyhemoblobin (OXY), deoxyhemoglobin (DEOXY), and O2-saturation (O2-SAT) in arbitrary units. The aim of this validation study is to assess whether the Hyperview® is able to monitor microcirculatory changes after revascularization in patients with PAD. METHODS In this prospective observational cohort study, 50 patients with PAD were included who were scheduled for endovascular, hybrid, or open revascularization. The ankle-brachial index (ABI), systolic toe pressure (TP) (in case of DM), and a set of Hyperview® measurements of the plantar region were recorded before and after treatment. Changes in pre- and postoperative measurements were assessed with the paired t-test. RESULTS Some 38 patients underwent endovascular revascularization and eight patients underwent hybrid or open vascular surgical revascularization. After revascularization, the ABI improved from 0.58 to 0.80 (p < 0.001). OXY increased from 72.6 to 77.8 (p = 0.134). DEOXY decreased from 69.1 to 55.0 (p < 0.001). O2-SAT increased from 51.3 to 58.1 (p < 0.001). TP improved from 50.6 to 61.9 mmHg (p = 0.065) but was measured in only 16 patients. CONCLUSION The Hyperview® is able to observe changes in the microcirculation after revascularization in terms of DEOXY and O2-SAT. The results of this study are a promising step into the validation of the Hyperview®.

Abstract
The study of the interaction between light and biological tissue is of great help in the identification of diseases as well as structural alterations in tissues. In the present study, we have developed a tissue diagnostic technique by using multispectral imaging in the visible spectrum combined with principal component analysis (PCA). We used information from the propagation of light through paraffin-embedded tissues to assess differences in the eye tissues of control mouse embryos compared to mouse embryos whose mothers were deprived of folic acid (FA), a crucial vitamin necessary for the growth and development of the fetus. After acquiring the endmembers from the multispectral images, spectral unmixing was used to identify the abundances of those endmembers in each pixel. For each acquired image, the final analysis was performed by performing a pixel-by-pixel and wavelength-by-wavelength absorbance calculation. Non-negative least squares (NNLS) were used in this research. The abundance maps obtained for the first endmember revealed vascular alterations (vitreous and choroid) in the embryos with maternal FA deficiency. However, the abundance maps obtained for the third endmember showed alterations in the texture of some tissues such as the lens and retina. Results indicated that multispectral imaging applied to paraffin-embedded tissues enhanced tissue visualization. Using this method, first, it can be seen tissue damage location and then decide what kind of biological techniques to apply.

Abstract
Hyperspectral imaging has emerged as a promising high-resolution and real-time imaging technology with potential applications in medical diagnostics and surgical guidance. In this study, we developed a high-speed hyperspectral camera by integrating a Fabry-Perot cavity filter on each CMOS pixel. We used it to non-invasively detect three blood components (haemoglobin, platelet, and total bilirubin). Specifically, we acquired transmission images of the subject's fingers, extracted spectral signals at each wavelength, and used dynamic spectroscopy to obtain non-invasive blood absorption spectra. The prediction models were established using the PLSR method and were modelled and validated based on the standard clinical-biochemical test values. The experimental results demonstrated excellent performance. The best predictions were obtained for haemoglobin, with a high related coefficient (R) of 0.85 or more in both the calibration and prediction sets and a mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) of only 5.7%. The results for total bilirubin were also ideal, with R values exceeding 0.8 in both sets and a MAPE of 10.6%. Although the prediction results for platelets were slightly less satisfactory, the error was still less than 15%, indicating that the results were also acceptable. Overall, our study highlights the potential of hyperspectral imaging technology for the development of portable and affordable devices for blood analysis, which can be used in various settings.

Abstract
Our main objective was to validate that hyperspectral imaging via a new portable camera carries the potential to provide a reliable clinical biomarker that can predict DFU healing. We recruited patients with diabetic foot ulceration (DFU) without peripheral arterial disease, infection or other serious illness. Using an hyperspectral imaging (HSI) apparatus, post-debridement hyperspectral images were taken evaluating the ulcer size, periwound oxyhemoglobin (OxyHb), deoxyhemoglobin level (DeoxyHb) and oxygen saturation (O2 Sat) for four consecutive visits. Twenty-seven patients were followed, out of whom seven healed their DFU while the remaining 20 failed to heal their DFU. The average time between each visit was 3 weeks. Binary logistic regression of healers versus non-healers on Visit 1 oxyHb and on Visit 2 showed a significant inverse association, OR = 0.85 (95% CI: 0.73-0.98, p < 0.001). An inverse correlation was observed between the Visit 1 oxyHb and the percentage of ulcer size reduction between Visit 1 and Visit 4 (r = -0.46, p = 0.02) and between the Visit 2 oxyHb and the percentage of ulcer size reduction between Visits 2 and 4 (r = -0.65, p = 0.001). Using oxyHb 50 as the cut-off point to predict DFU complete healing, Visit 1 oxyHb measurement provided 85% sensitivity, 70% specificity, 50% positive predictive value and 93% negative predictive value. For Visit 2, oxyHb had 85% sensitivity, 85% specificity, 66% positive predictive value and 94% negative predictive value. We conclude that this preliminary study, which involved a relatively small number of patients, indicates that hyperspectral imaging is a simple exam that can easily be added to daily clinical practice and has the potential to provide useful information regarding the healing potential of DFU over a short period of time.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Lack of robust, feasible, and quantitative outcomes impedes Raynaud phenomenon (RP) clinical trials in systemic sclerosis (SSc) patients. Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) non-invasively measures oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin (oxyHb and deoxyHb) concentrations and oxygen saturation (O2 sat) in the skin and depicts data as oxygenation heatmaps. This study explored the potential role of HSI in quantifying SSc-RP disease severity and activity. METHODS Patients with SSc-RP (n = 13) and healthy control participants (HC; n = 12) were prospectively recruited in the clinic setting. Using a hand-held camera, bilateral hand HSI (HyperMed™, Waltham, MA) was performed in a temperature-controlled room (22 °C). OxyHb, deoxyHb, and O2 sat values were calculated for 78-mm2 regions of interest for the ventral fingertips and palm (for normalization). Subjects underwent a cold provocation challenge (gloved hand submersion in 15 °C water bath for 1 min), and repeated HSI was performed at 0, 10, and 20 min. Patients completed two patient-reported outcome (PRO) instruments: the Raynaud Condition Score (RCS) and the Cochin Hand Function Scale (CHFS) for symptom burden assessment. Statistical analyses were performed using the Mann-Whitney U test and a mixed effects model (Stata, College Station, TX). RESULTS Ninety-two percent of participants were women in their 40s. For SSc-RP patients, 69% had limited cutaneous SSc, the mean ± SD SSc duration was 11 ± 5 years, and 38% had prior digital ulcers-none currently. Baseline deoxyHb was higher, and O2 sat was lower, in SSc patients versus HC (p < 0.05). SSc patients had a greater decline in oxyHb and O2 sat from baseline to time 0 (after cold challenge) with distinct rewarming oxyHb, O2 sat, and deoxyHb trajectories versus HCs (p < 0.01). There were no significant correlations between oxyHb, deoxyHb, and O2 sat level changes following cold challenge and RCS or CHFS scores. CONCLUSION Hyperspectral imaging is a feasible approach for SSc-RP quantification in the clinic setting. The RCS and CHFS values did not correlate with HSI parameters. Our data suggest that HSI technology for the assessment of SSc-RP at baseline and in response to cold provocation is a potential quantitative measure for SSc-RP severity and activity, though longitudinal studies that assess sensitivity to change are needed.

[PMID: 35961628 DOI: 10.1016/j.jvsv.2022.07.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2022] [Revised: 06/14/2022] [Accepted: 07/02/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The underlying pathophysiology of lower limb changes in chronic venous disorders (CVD) may involve alteration in microcirculation and tissue oxygenation. Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is a noninvasive tool that is used clinically to measure transcutaneous oxygenation in peripheral artery disease and diabetic foot disease. However, there has been little application in venous disease. The aim of this study was to determine if transcutaneous oxygenation in the lower limb, as measured by HSI, changes depending on the clinical component of the Clinical-Etiological-Anatomical-Pathophysiological (CEAP) classification in CVD. METHODS This was an observational study of patients with CVD recruited from a vascular specialist clinic at a tertiary hospital from January 2020 to January 2021. Participants were allocated to eight groups according to the clinical component of CEAP classification of CVD. Baseline demographic and risk factor information were collected. Transcutaneous oxygenation was measured using HSI at seven sites around the foot and gaiter area in the supine and standing position. Participants rested supine for 15 minutes before the supine measurements and then stood for 15 minutes before the standing measurements. Tissue oxygenation was analyzed over a fixed circular surface area of 79 mm2 at the target location. Calculations of oxyhemoglobin level (artificial unit [AU]), deoxyhemoglobin level (AU), oxygen saturation (%), and temperature (°C) were obtained. The Northern Ethics Committee (18/NTA/78) approved this conduct of the study and participants signed written consent forms. RESULTS There were 94 participants (164 lower limbs) included in the study. The median age was 59 years and 59 participants (63%) were women. At all sites except the heel, deoxyhemoglobin measurements increased in the standing position compared with the supine position (P < .001). In the gaiter region, there was nearly a doubling in deoxyhemoglobin level at 5 cm above the medial malleolus (supine 43.88 AU vs standing 80.46 AU; P < .001) and 5 cm above the lateral malleolus (supine 46.33 AU vs standing 87.72 AU; P < .001). When measurements were stratified by clinical class of the CEAP classification, there was a greater increase in deoxyhemoglobin levels with increasing clinical class in the standing position (P < .001). This finding was not observed in the supine measurements. CONCLUSIONS In CVD, HSI shows an increase in deoxyhemoglobin in the standing compared with supine position, particularly in the gaiter region. Furthermore, standing deoxyhemoglobin increases as the CEAP clinical class increases. Thus, this noninvasive tool may respond to venous physiology and may supplement the clinical class of the CEAP classification system.

Abstract
The aims of this study were to assess changes in tissue perfusion up to 6 weeks after endovascular therapy (EVT), in hospital and at home, and to determine differences in tissue perfusion between patients with and without clinical improvement or good angiographic result. This single-center prospective cohort study included patients undergoing EVT for Rutherford stages two to six. Hyperspectral and thermal imaging were performed at the dorsal and plantar sides of the foot. These measurements consisted of a baseline measurement pre-EVT, and six follow-up measurements obtained at 1 and 4 h and 6 weeks in hospital, and 1 day, 7 days, and 14 days at home. Clinical improvement was defined as a decrease of one or more Rutherford class or decrease in the wound surface area and a good angiographic result was accomplished when a Transatlantic Inter-Society Consensus for the Management of PAD II C or D lesion was treated and uninterrupted flow continued in at least one below-the-knee artery in continuation with the inframalleolar arteries. The study included 34 patients with 41 treated limbs. Deoxyhemoglobin values were lower 1 h post-EVT compared with baseline and increased over time up to 6 weeks post-EVT. Significant differences in deoxyhemoglobin levels at 7 and 14 days post-EVT were determined between patients with and without clinical or angiographic success. This prospective pilot study shows the feasibility of hyperspectral imaging and thermal imaging post-EVT at home, which may decrease the need for hospital visits.

Abstract
Stains and stained incipient lesions can be challenging to differentiate with established clinical tools. New diagnostic techniques are required for improved distinction to enable early noninvasive treatment. This in vitro study evaluates the performance of artificial intelligence (AI)-based classification of hyperspectral imaging data for early occlusal lesion detection and differentiation from stains. Sixty-five extracted permanent human maxillary and mandibular bicuspids and molars (International Caries Detection and Assessment System [ICDAS] II 0–4) were imaged with a hyperspectral camera (Diaspective Vision TIVITA® Tissue, Diaspective Vision, Pepelow, Germany) at a distance of 350 mm, acquiring spatial and spectral information in the wavelength range 505–1000 nm; 650 fissural spectra were used to train classification algorithms (models) for automated distinction between stained but sound enamel and stained lesions. Stratified 10-fold cross-validation was used. The model with the highest classification performance, a fine k-nearest neighbor classification algorithm, was used to classify five additional tooth fissural areas. Polarization microscopy of ground sections served as reference. Compared to stained lesions, stained intact enamel showed higher reflectance in the wavelength range 525–710 nm but lower reflectance in the wavelength range 710–1000 nm. A fine k-nearest neighbor classification algorithm achieved the highest performance with a Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC) of 0.75, a sensitivity of 0.95 and a specificity of 0.80 when distinguishing between intact stained and stained lesion spectra. The superposition of color-coded classification results on further tooth occlusal projections enabled qualitative assessment of the entire fissure’s enamel health. AI-based evaluation of hyperspectral images is highly promising as a complementary method to visual and radiographic examination for early occlusal lesion detection.

Diagnostics (Basel) 2022; 12:diagnostics12061320. [PMID: 35741130 PMCID: PMC9221918 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics12061320] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2022] [Revised: 05/18/2022] [Accepted: 05/22/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Current assessment standards in chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) focus on macrovascular function while neglecting the microcirculation. Multispectral near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) provides hemodynamic characteristics of the microcirculation (i.e., capillaries) and may be a powerful tool for monitoring CLTI and preventing extremity loss. The aims of this study were to (1) investigate the effects of lower limb revascularization on the microcirculation and (2) determine if macrovascular and microvascular assessments correlate. Methods: An observational, retrospective cohort study of 38 endovascular interventions in 30 CLTI subjects was analyzed pre- and post-intervention for arterial Doppler acceleration times (AcT; macrovascular) and NIRS metrics (microvascular). Pre-intervention ankle-brachial index (ABI) was also analyzed. Results: AcT significantly decreased (p = 0.009) while oxyhemoglobin (HbO) significantly increased (p < 0.04) after endovascular intervention, indicating treatment efficacy. However, macrovascular measurements (ABI, AcT) and NIRS metrics of oxygenation and perfusion did not correlate (p > 0.06, r2 < 0.15, n = 23) indicating that macro- and microvascular assessment are not congruent. Conclusion: These findings suggest that macrovascular and microvascular assessments can determine interventional efficacy in their corresponding vasculature. Their lack of correlation, however, suggests the need for simultaneous assessment as independent use may cause diagnostic information to be missed.

Abstract
PURPOSE Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) and thermal imaging allow contact-free tissue perfusion measurements and may help determine the effect of endovascular treatment (EVT) in patients with peripheral arterial disease. This study aimed to detect changes in perfusion with HSI and thermal imaging peri-procedurally and determine whether these changes can identify limbs that show clinical improvement after 6 weeks. METHODS Patients with Rutherford class 2-6 scheduled for EVT were included prospectively. Hyperspectral imaging and thermal imaging were performed directly before and after EVT. Images were taken from the lateral side of the calves and plantar side of the feet. Concentrations of (de)oxyhemoglobin, oxygen saturation, and skin temperature were recorded. Angiographic results were determined on completion angiogram. Clinical improvement 6 weeks after EVT was defined as a decrease ≥ one Rutherford class. Peri-procedural changes in perfusion parameters were compared between limbs with and without good angiographic results or clinical improvement. To identify limbs with clinical improvement, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to determine cutoff values for change in HSI. RESULTS Included were 23 patients with 29 treated limbs. Change in HSI values and temperature was not significantly different between limbs with good and poor angiographic results. Change in peri-procedural deoxyhemoglobin, determined by HSI, at the calves and feet was significantly different between limbs with and without clinical improvement at 6 week follow-up (p=0.027 and p=0.017, respectively). The ROC curve for change in deoxyhemoglobin at the calves showed a cutoff value of ≤1.0, and ≤-0.5 at the feet, which were discriminative for clinical improvement (sensitivity 77%; specificity 75% and sensitivity 62%; specificity 88%, respectively). CONCLUSIONS HSI can detect changes in perfusion at the calves after EVT in patients with Rutherford class 2-6. Peri-procedural deoxyhemoglobin changes at the calves and feet are significantly different between limbs with and without clinical improvement. Decrease in deoxyhemoglobin directly after EVT may identify limbs that show clinical improvement 6 weeks after EVT.

Abstract
Among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), the association between hyperspectral imaging (HSI) examination and diabetic neuropathy (DN) is ascertained using HSI of the feet using four types of spectral difference measurements. DN was evaluated by traditional Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI), evaluation of painful neuropathy (ID-Pain, DN4) and sudomotor function by measuring electrochemical skin conductance (ESC). Of the 120 T2DM patients and 20 healthy adults enrolled, T2DM patients are categorized into normal sudomotor (ESC >60 μS) and sudomotor dysfunction (ESC ≤ 60 μS) groups. Spectral difference analyses reveal significant intergroup differences, whereas traditional examinations cannot distinguish between the two groups. HSI waveform reflectance gradually increases with disease severity, at 1400 to 1600 nm. The area under the curve (AUC) of receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis for abnormal ESC is ≥0.8 for all four HSI methods. HSI could be an objective, sensitive, rapid, noninvasive and remote approach to identify early small-fiber DN.

Evaluation of Hyperspectral Imaging for Follow-Up Assessment after Revascularization in Peripheral Artery Disease. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11030758.

Abstract
Background: Assessment of tissue oxygenation is an important aspect of detection and monitoring of patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD). Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is a non-contact technology for assessing microcirculatory function by quantifying tissue oxygen saturation (StO2). This study investigated whether HSI can be used to monitor skin oxygenation in patients with PAD after appropriate treatment of the lower extremities. Methods: For this purpose, 37 patients with PAD were studied by means of ankle–brachial index (ABI) and HSI before and after surgical or endovascular therapy. Thereby, the oxygenation parameter StO2 and near infrared (NIR) perfusion index were quantified in seven angiosomes on the diseased lower leg and foot. In addition, the effects of skin temperature and physical activity on StO2 and the NIR perfusion index and the respective inter-operator variability of these parameters were investigated in 25 healthy volunteers. Results: In all patients, the ABI significantly increased after surgical and endovascular therapy. In parallel, HSI revealed significant changes in both StO2 and NIR perfusion index in almost all studied angiosomes depending on the performed treatment. The increase in tissue oxygenation saturation was especially pronounced after surgical treatment. Neither heat nor cold, nor physical activity, nor repeated assessments of HSI parameters by independent investigators significantly affected the results on StO2 and the NIR perfusion index. Conclusions: Tissue oxygen saturation data obtained with HSI are robust to external confounders, such as temperature and physical activity, and do not show inter-operator variability; therefore, can be used as an additional technique to established methods, such as the ABI, to monitor peripheral perfusion in patients with PAD.

Abstract
Chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) has a major impact on patient's lives and is associated with a heavy health care burden with high morbidity and mortality. Treatment by endovascular intervention is mostly based on macrocirculatory information from angiography and does not consider the microcirculation. Despite successful endovascular intervention according to angiographic criteria, a proportion of patients fail to heal ischemic lesions. This might be due to impaired microvascular perfusion and variations in the supply to different angiosomes. Non-invasive optical techniques for microcirculatory perfusion and oxygen saturation imaging have the potential to provide the interventionist with additional information in real-time, supporting clinical decisions during the intervention. This study presents a novel multimodal imaging system, based on multi-exposure laser speckle contrast imaging and multi-spectral imaging, for continuous use during endovascular intervention. The results during intervention display spatiotemporal changes in the microcirculation compatible with expected physiological reactions during balloon dilation, with initially induced ischemia followed by a restored perfusion, and local administration of a vasodilator inducing hyperemia. We also present perioperative and postoperative follow-up measurements with a pulsatile microcirculation perfusion. Finally, cases of spatial heterogeneity in the observed oxygen saturation and perfusion are discussed. In conclusion, this technical feasibility study shows the potential of the methodology to characterize changes in microcirculation before, during, and after endovascular intervention.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic, non-healing wounds are a growing concern in healthcare delivery. Tissue oxygenation is recognised as critical to successful wound healing. However, the quality and quantity of the information extracted by hyperspectral imaging depend on the optical tissue model. This article aims to develop a simplified and computationally efficient approach comparable in quality with the two-layer model. METHODS We have considered the epidermal layer as a 'thin-film' within the dermal layer. By considering the mismatched boundary and developing a four-flux model for light transport within the tissue, we have obtained a quasi two-layer model with a closed-form solution similar to the single-layer model. RESULTS We have compared the developed model with the two-layer model (reference) and the single-layer model for the broad range of physiologically relevant parameters. The thickness of the epithelium: 50, 80, and 120 μm. Melanin concentration: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32%. Blood concentration: 0.2%, 1%, and 7%. Oxygen saturation: 60%, 80%, and 99%. Our initial results show that the accuracy of the proposed quasi two-layer model significantly (by a factor of 10) outperforms the single-layer model and is in close agreement with the two-layer model. CONCLUSIONS The proposed quasi two-layer model significantly (by the factor of 10) outperforms the single-layer model and is closely aligned with the two-layer model.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the capability of hyperspectral imaging (HSI), a contact-less and noninvasive technology, to monitor perfusion changes of the hand during a modified Allen test (MAT) and cuff occlusion test. Furthermore, the study aimed at obtaining objective perfusion parameters of the hand. METHODS HSI of the hand was performed on 20 healthy volunteers with a commercially available HSI system during a MAT and a cuff occlusion test. Besides gathering red-green-blue (RGB) images, the perfusion parameters tissue hemoglobin index (THI), (superficial tissue) hemoglobin oxygenation (StO2), near-infrared perfusion (NIR), and tissue water index (TWI) were calculated for four different regions of interest on the hand. For the MAT, occlusion (OI; the ratio between the condition during occlusion and before occlusion) and reperfusion (RI; the ratio between the non-occlusion state and the prior occlusion state) indices were calculated for each perfusion parameter. All data were correlated to the clinical findings. RESULTS False-color images showed visible differences between the various perfusion conditions during the MAT and cuff occlusion test. THI, StO2, and NIR behaved as expected from physiology, while TWI did not in the context of this study. During rest, mean THI, StO2, and NIR of the hand were 34 ± 2, 72 ± 9, and 61 ± 6, respectively. The RI for THI showed a roundabout threefold increase after reperfusion of both radial and ulnar artery and was thus, distinctly pronounced when compared with StO2 and NIR (~1.25). The OI was lowest for THI when compared with StO2 and NIR. CONCLUSIONS HSI with its parameters THI, StO2, and NIR proved to be suitable to evaluate perfusion of the hand. By this, it could complement visual inspection during the MAT for evaluating the functionality of the superficial palmary arch before radial or ulnar artery harvest. The presented RI might deliver useful comparative values to detect pathological perfusion disorders at an early stage. As microcirculation monitoring is crucial for many medical issues, HSI shows potential to be used, besides further applications, in the monitoring of (free) flaps and transplants and microcirculation monitoring of critically ill patients.

Abstract
Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is a non-invasive imaging modality already applied to evaluate hepatic oxygenation and to discriminate different models of hepatic ischemia. Nevertheless, the ability of HSI to detect and predict the reperfusion damage intraoperatively was not yet assessed. Hypoxia caused by hepatic artery occlusion (HAO) in the liver brings about dreadful vascular complications known as ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). Here, we show the evaluation of liver viability in an HAO model with an artificial intelligence-based analysis of HSI. We have combined the potential of HSI to extract quantitative optical tissue properties with a deep learning-based model using convolutional neural networks. The artificial intelligence (AI) score of liver viability showed a significant correlation with capillary lactate from the liver surface (r = −0.78, p = 0.0320) and Suzuki’s score (r = −0.96, p = 0.0012). CD31 immunostaining confirmed the microvascular damage accordingly with the AI score. Our results ultimately show the potential of an HSI-AI-based analysis to predict liver viability, thereby prompting for intraoperative tool development to explore its application in a clinical setting.

Abstract
Hyperspectral technology is used to obtain spectral and spatial information of samples simultaneously and demonstrates significant potential for use in seed purity identification. However, it has certain limitations, such as high acquisition cost and massive redundant information. This study integrates the advantages of the sparse feature of the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) algorithm and the classification feature of the logistic regression model (LRM). We propose a hyperspectral rice seed purity identification method based on the LASSO logistic regression model (LLRM). The feasibility of using LLRM for the selection of feature wavelength bands and seed purity identification are discussed using four types of rice seeds as research objects. The results of 13 different adulteration cases revealed that the value of the regularisation parameter was different in each case. The recognition accuracy of LLRM and average recognition accuracy were 91.67-100% and 98.47%, respectively. Furthermore, the recognition accuracy of full-band LRM was 71.60-100%. However, the average recognition accuracy was merely 89.63%. These results indicate that LLRM can select the feature wavelength bands stably and improve the recognition accuracy of rice seeds, demonstrating the feasibility of developing a hyperspectral technology with LLRM for seed purity identification.

Abstract
Hyperspectral imaging techniques (HSI) do not require contact with patients and are non-ionizing as well as non-invasive. As a consequence, they have been extensively applied in the medical field. HSI is being combined with machine learning (ML) processes to obtain models to assist in diagnosis. In particular, the combination of these techniques has proven to be a reliable aid in the differentiation of healthy and tumor tissue during brain tumor surgery. ML algorithms such as support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF) and convolutional neural networks (CNN) are used to make predictions and provide in-vivo visualizations that may assist neurosurgeons in being more precise, hence reducing damages to healthy tissue. In this work, thirteen in-vivo hyperspectral images from twelve different patients with high-grade gliomas (grade III and IV) have been selected to train SVM, RF and CNN classifiers. Five different classes have been defined during the experiments: healthy tissue, tumor, venous blood vessel, arterial blood vessel and dura mater. Overall accuracy (OACC) results vary from 60% to 95% depending on the training conditions. Finally, as far as the contribution of each band to the OACC is concerned, the results obtained in this work are 3.81 times greater than those reported in the literature.

Reliability assessment of hyperspectral imaging with the HyperView™ system for lower extremity superficial tissue oxygenation in young healthy volunteers. J Clin Monit Comput 2021; 36:713-723. [PMID: 33844164 PMCID: PMC9162963 DOI: 10.1007/s10877-021-00698-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2021] [Accepted: 03/23/2021] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
Purpose: Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is a noninvasive spectroscopy technique for determining superficial tissue oxygenation. The HyperView™ system is a hand-held camera that enables perfusion image acquisition. The evaluation of superficial tissue oxygenation is warranted in the evaluation of patients with peripheral arterial disease. The aim was to determine the reliability of repeated HSI measurements. Methods: In this prospective cohort study, HSI was performed on 50 healthy volunteers with a mean age of 26.4 ± 2.5 years, at the lower extremity. Two independent observers performed HSI during two subsequent measurement sessions. Short term test–retest reliability and intra- and inter-observer reliability were determined, and generalizability and decision studies were performed. Transcutaneous oxygen pressure (TcPo2) measurements were also performed. Results: The short term test–retest reliability was good for the HSI values determined at the lower extremity, ranging from 0.72 to 0.90. Intra- and inter-observer reliability determined at different days were poor to moderate for both HSI (0.24 to 0.71 and 0.30 to 0.58, respectively) and TcPo2 (0.54 and 0.56, and 0.51 and 0.31, respectively). Reliability can be increased to >0.75 by averaging two measurements on different days. Conclusion: This study showed good short term test–retest reliability for HSI measurements, however low intra- and inter-observer reliability was observed for tissue oxygenation measurements with both HSI and TcPo2 performed at separate days in young healthy volunteers. Reliability of HSI can be improved when determined as a mean of two measurements taken on different days.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The Hyperview® is a novel camera that applies hyperspectral imaging to project local concentrations of oxyhaemoglobin (OXY), deoxyhaemoglobin (DEOXY) and O2-saturation (O2-SAT) in a map. In this pilot validation study, we assessed inter - and intra-observer agreement for measuring OXY, DEOXY and O2-SAT in healthy participants. METHODS The plantar region of the right foot was assessed with the Hyperview® in 50 healthy participants. Two consecutive pictures were taken by the same observer, followed by two images by a second observer. Measurements were performed without and with standardization (a static device for both the foot and the Hyperview camera). Inter- and intra-observer agreements were expressed as Intraclass Correlation coefficients (ICC) with their 95% confidence interval (CI). A score <0.40 indicates poor agreement, 0.40-0.59 fair, 0.60-0.74 good and 0.75-1.00 excellent agreement. Bland and Altman plots were also generated. RESULTS Without standardization, the ICC values between the observers for OXY, DEOXY and O2-SAT ranged from 0.70 to 0.83. The intra-observer agreement of both observers ranged from 0.36 to 0.83. With standardization, the ICC values between the observers ranged from 0.80 to 0.82 and intra-observer agreement varied from 0.75 to 0.92. Four Bland and Altman plots were generated of the measurements of OXY by observers 1 and 2. CONCLUSIONS When standardization is used, the Hyperview® camera is a reliable device with excellent intra- and inter-observer agreements for the assessment of OXY, DEOXY and O2-SAT. In future research, the inter- and intra-observer agreements of the camera should be investigated in patients with diabetes and/or peripheral arterial disease.

The Changes of Leaf Reflectance Spectrum and Leaf Functional Traits of Osmanthus fragrans Are Related to the Parasitism of Cuscuta japonica. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2021.

Abstract
Studies on the influence of parasitism on plants based on hyperspectral analysis have not been reported so far. To fully understand the variation characteristics and laws of leaf reflectance spectrum and functional traits after the urban plant parasitized by Cuscuta japonica Choisy. Osmanthus fragrans (Thunb.) Lour. was taken as the research object to analyze the spectral reflectance and functional traits characteristics at different parasitical stages. Results showed that the spectral reflectance was higher than those being parasitized in the visible and near-infrared range. The spectral reflectance in 750~1400 nm was the sensitive range of spectral response of host plant to parasitic infection, which is universal at different parasitic stages. We established a chlorophyll inversion model (y = −65913.323x + 9.783, R2 = 0.6888) based on the reflectance of red valley, which can be used for chlorophyll content of the parasitic Osmanthus fragrans. There was a significant correlation between spectral parameters and chlorophyll content index. Through the change of spectral parameters, we can predict the chlorophyll content of Osmanthus fragrans under different parasitic degrees. After being parasitized, the leaf functional traits of host plant were generally characterized by large leaf thickness, small leaf area, small specific leaf area, low relative chlorophyll content, high leaf dry matter content and high leaf tissue density. These findings indicate that the host plant have adopted a certain trade-off strategy to maintain their growth in the invasion environment of parasitic plants. Therefore, we suspect that the leaf economics spectrum may also exist in the parasitic environment, and there was a general trend toward the “slow investment-return” type in the global leaf economics spectrum.

Abstract
Lipid distribution in the liver provides crucial information for diagnosing the severity of fatty liver and fatty liver-associated liver cancer. Therefore, a noninvasive, label-free, and quantitative modality is eagerly anticipated. We report near-infrared hyperspectral imaging for the quantitative visualization of lipid content in mouse liver based on partial least square regression (PLSR) and support vector regression (SVR). Analysis results indicate that SVR with standard normal variate pretreatment outperforms PLSR by achieving better root mean square error (15.3 mg/g) and higher determination coefficient (0.97). The quantitative mapping of lipid content in the mouse liver is realized using SVR.

Abstract
To reduce the risk of pancreatic fistula after pancreatectomy, a satisfactory blood flow at the pancreatic stump is considered crucial. Our group has developed and validated a real-time computational imaging analysis of tissue perfusion, using fluorescence imaging, the fluorescence-based enhanced reality (FLER). Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is another emerging technology, which provides tissue-specific spectral signatures, allowing for perfusion quantification. Both imaging modalities were employed to estimate perfusion in a porcine model of partial pancreatic ischemia. Perfusion quantification was assessed using the metrics of both imaging modalities (slope of the time to reach maximum fluorescence intensity and tissue oxygen saturation (StO2), for FLER and HSI, respectively). We found that the HSI-StO2 and the FLER slope were statistically correlated using the Spearman analysis (R = 0.697; p = 0.013). Local capillary lactate values were statistically correlated to the HSI-StO2 and to the FLER slope (R = −0.88; p < 0.001 and R = −0.608; p = 0.0074). HSI-based and FLER-based lactate prediction models had statistically similar predictive abilities (p = 0.112). Both modalities are promising to assess real-time pancreatic perfusion. Clinical translation in human pancreatic surgery is currently underway.

Abstract
Multispectral and hyperspectral imaging (HSI) are emerging imaging techniques with the potential to transform the way patients with wounds are cared for, but it is not clear whether current systems are capable of delivering real-time tissue characterisation and treatment guidance. We conducted a systematic review of HSI systems that have been assessed in patients, published over the past 32 years. We analysed 140 studies, including 10 different HSI systems. Current in vivo HSI systems generate a tissue oxygenation map. Tissue oxygenation measurements may help to predict those patients at risk of wound formation or delayed healing. No safety concerns were reported in any studies. A small number of studies have demonstrated the capabilities of in vivo label-free HSI, but further work is needed to fully integrate it into the current clinical workflow for different wound aetiologies. As an emerging imaging modality for medical applications, HSI offers great potential for non-invasive disease diagnosis and guidance when treating patients with both acute and chronic wounds.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is a novel technology for obtaining quantitative measurements from transcutaneous spatial and spectral information. In patients with SSc, the severity of skin tightness is associated with internal organ involvement. However, clinical assessment using the modified Rodnan skin score is highly variable and there are currently no universal standardized protocols. This study aimed to compare the ability to differentiate between SSc patients and healthy controls using skin scores, ultrasound and HSI. METHODS Short-wave infrared light was utilized to detect the spectral angle mapper (SAM) of HSI. In addition, skin severity was evaluated by skin scores, ultrasound to detect dermal thickness and strain elastography. Spearman's correlation was used for assessing skin scores, strain ratio, thickness and SAM. Comparisons of various assessment tools were performed by receiver operating characteristic curves. RESULTS In total, 31 SSc patients were enrolled. SAM was positively correlated with skin scores and dermal thickness. In SSc patients with normal skin scores, SAM values were still significantly higher than in healthy controls. SAM exhibited the highest area under the curve (AUC: 0.812, P < 0.001) in detecting SSc compared with skin scores (AUC: 0.712, P < 0.001), thickness (AUC: 0.585, P = 0.009) and strain ratio by elastography (AUC: 0.522, P = 0.510). Moreover, the severity of skin tightness was reflected by the incremental changes of waveforms in the spectral diagrams. CONCLUSION SAM was correlated with skin scores and sufficiently sensitive to detect subclinical disease. HSI can be used as a novel, non-invasive method for assessing skin changes in SSc.

Abstract
There is a paucity of quantitative measures of microvascular perfusion values in the skin. Newly developed, handheld hyperspectral imaging devices identify unique spectral fingerprints of oxygenated and deoxygenated haemoglobin in the superficial microvasculature. Establishing value ranges for healthy patients without vascular complications will subsequently help standardise assessments for perfusion defects. In particular, diabetics who are prone to vascular calcifications and lower extremity wounds may benefit. A total of 73 subjects were enrolled in the study and split in two cohorts: 36 'non-diabetic' non-vascularly compromised patients and 37 'diabetic' patients with a formal diagnosis of diabetes but without history of pedal ulceration. Values of oxygenated haemoglobin (HT-Oxy) and deoxygenated haemoglobin (HT-DeOxy) from both devices are analysed.

Abstract
Nanomaterials are playing an increasingly important role in cancer diagnosis and treatment. Nanoparticle (NP)-based technologies have been utilized for targeted drug delivery during chemotherapies, photodynamic therapy, and immunotherapy. Another active area of research is the toxicity studies of these nanomaterials to understand the cellular uptake and transport of these materials in cells, tissues, and environment. Traditional techniques such as transmission electron microscopy, and mass spectrometry to analyze NP-based cellular transport or toxicity effect are expensive, require extensive sample preparation, and are low-throughput. Dark-field hyperspectral imaging (DF-HSI), an integration of spectroscopy and microscopy/imaging, provides the ability to investigate cellular transport of these NPs and to quantify the distribution of them within bio-materials. DF-HSI also offers versatility in non-invasively monitoring microorganisms, single cell, and proteins. DF-HSI is a low-cost, label-free technique that is minimally invasive and is a viable choice for obtaining high-throughput quantitative molecular analyses. Multimodal imaging modalities such as Fourier transform infrared and Raman spectroscopy are also being integrated with HSI systems to enable chemical imaging of the samples. HSI technology is being applied in surgeries to obtain molecular information about the tissues in real-time. This article provides brief overview of fundamental principles of DF-HSI and its application for nanomaterials, protein-detection, single-cell analysis, microbiology, surgical procedures along with technical challenges and future integrative approach with other imaging and measurement modalities. This article is categorized under: Diagnostic Tools > in vitro Nanoparticle-Based Sensing Diagnostic Tools > in vivo Nanodiagnostics and Imaging Implantable Materials and Surgical Technologies > Nanoscale Tools and Techniques in Surgery.

Abstract
Background: Peripheral arterial disease has high incidence and complication rates. Vessel recanalization represents the main therapy. However, it induces reperfusion injury. Preconditioning with sildenafil has been advocated to protect against this injury. In this study, we show a real-time noninvasive quantitative assessment using hyperspectral imaging (HSI) of ischemia/reperfusion (IR) and analyzing the sildenafil effect. Materials and Methods: A one-sided hindlimb ischemia (120 minutes) followed by reperfusion (30 minutes) was created. Five mice received Sildenafil (1 mg/kg, i.p. twice before ischemia) and 5 mice served as control. The StO2 at T0, 5, 30, 60, 120 minutes after ischemia (T5, 30, 60, 120) and 5, 15, and 30 minutes after reperfusion (T125, 135, 150) were measured through HSI. Results: The control group showed a significantly lower StO2 at T120 (24.8% ± 17%) as compared with T0 (53.3% ± 7.04%) (P = .013) and T150 (76.8 ± 3.77; P = .0008). T150 showed a statistically significantly higher StO2 than T0 (P = .0134). In the sildenafil group, T120 StO2 (28.6% ± 20%) was lower than T0 (63.3% ± 8.46%; P = .0312) and T150 (73.3% ± 19.1%, P = .0075). The StO2 values did not differ statistically between sildenafil and control groups. Conclusions: HSI is a feasible tool to quantify both ischemia and reperfusion phases during lower limb IR. Preconditioning with sildenafil did not modify IR-related StO2 changes.

Abstract
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) affects many individuals worldwide and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Controversy exists on whether or not to screen asymptomatic patients. Further complicating this is that many patients with a chronic lower extremity wound are often asymptomatic. PAD and traditional noninvasive vascular studies may be inaccurate in providing a correct diagnosis. A review of current and novel vascular assessment modalities along with their benefits and limitations are presented here. A combination of these vascular assessments may help improve accuracy in diagnosis, providing timely care to those patients in need.

Abstract
In spinal surgery, surgical navigation is an essential tool for safe intervention, including the placement of pedicle screws without injury to nerves and blood vessels. Commercially available systems typically rely on the tracking of a dynamic reference frame attached to the spine of the patient. However, the reference frame can be dislodged or obscured during the surgical procedure, resulting in loss of navigation. Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) captures a large number of spectral information bands across the electromagnetic spectrum, providing image information unseen by the human eye. We aim to exploit HSI to detect skin features in a novel methodology to track patient position in navigated spinal surgery. In our approach, we adopt two local feature detection methods, namely a conventional handcrafted local feature and a deep learning-based feature detection method, which are compared to estimate the feature displacement between different frames due to motion. To demonstrate the ability of the system in tracking skin features, we acquire hyperspectral images of the skin of 17 healthy volunteers. Deep-learned skin features are detected and localized with an average error of only 0.25 mm, outperforming the handcrafted local features with respect to the ground truth based on the use of optical markers.

Abstract
Multispectral imaging (MSI) is a new, non-invasive method to continuously measure oxygenation and microcirculatory perfusion, but has limitedly been validated in healthy volunteers. The present study aimed to validate the potential of multispectral imaging in the detection of microcirculatory perfusion disturbances during a vascular occlusion test (VOT). Two consecutive VOT's were performed on healthy volunteers and tissue oxygenation was measured with MSI and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). Correlations between the rate of desaturation, recovery and the hyperemic area under the curve (AUC) measured by MSI and NIRS were calculated. Fifty-eight volunteers were included. The MSI oxygenation curves showed identifiable components of the VOT, including a desaturation and recovery slope and hyperemic area under the curve, similar to those measured with NIRS. The correlation between the rate of desaturation measured by MSI and NIRS was moderate: r = 0.42 (p = 0.001) for the first and r = 0.41 (p = 0.002) for the second test. Our results suggest that non-contact multispectral imaging is able to measure changes in regional oxygenation and deoxygenation during a vascular occlusion test in healthy volunteers. When compared to measurements with NIRS, correlation of results was moderate to weak, most likely reflecting differences in physiology of the regions of interest and measurement technique.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is a noninvasive technique for transcutaneous measurements of tissue perfusion. This study (1) provides a review of the current literature on HSI for tissue perfusion measurements of the lower leg and (2) introduces a standardized measurement protocol for HSI measurements with a portable system. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION A literature search was performed for studies on tissue perfusion measurements with HSI in the lower extremity. A standardized protocol was developed to perform HSI measurements in 43 healthy volunteers at the plantar side of the foot and at the lateral side of the calf, with 3 consecutive hyperspectral images at each location. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS The literature review identified 9 studies, including 2 of healthy volunteers, 4 of patients with diabetes mellitus, and 3 of patients with peripheral arterial disease. In 5 of 7 patient studies, HSI values were associated with severity of disease or wound healing. In our study, the healthy volunteers' HSI values for oxyhemoglobin, deoxyhemoglobin, and oxygen saturation were (mean±SD) 82.8±24, 55.7±15.7, and 59.2±11.7, respectively, at the plantar surface of the foot, and 40.8±11, 38.0±7.8, and 51.7±10.5, respectively, at the lateral side of the calf. HSI values differed significantly between the calf and plantar locations. Intraoperator reliability between the 3 consecutive images ranged from 81% to 89%. CONCLUSIONS Limited evidence indicates that HSI is associated with severity of peripheral arterial disease and diabetes mellitus, and with wound healing. Hyperspectral images with a portable system can be taken with high precision when a standardized measurement protocol is used. However, differences exist at several locations at the lower extremity, so each measurement location should be used as its own reference when consecutive measurements are performed during follow-up. More studies with larger patient cohorts should be performed before HSI can be incorporated as standard tool in the diagnostic armamentarium of the vascular specialist.

Abstract
There are >12 million patients with peripheral artery disease in the United States. The most severe form of peripheral artery disease is critical limb ischemia (CLI). The diagnosis and management of CLI is often challenging. Ethnic differences in comorbidities and presentation of CLI exist. Compared with white patients, black and Hispanic patients have higher prevalence rates of diabetes mellitus and chronic renal disease and are more likely to present with gangrene, whereas white patients are more likely to present with ulcers and rest pain. A thorough evaluation of limb perfusion is important in the diagnosis of CLI because it can not only enable timely diagnosis but also reduce unnecessary invasive procedures in patients with adequate blood flow or among those with other causes for ulcers, including venous, neuropathic, or pressure changes. This scientific statement discusses the current tests and technologies for noninvasive assessment of limb perfusion, including the ankle-brachial index, toe-brachial index, and other perfusion technologies. In addition, limitations of the current technologies along with opportunities for improvement, research, and reducing disparities in health care for patients with CLI are discussed.

Abstract
Multispectral and hyperspectral imaging (HSI) are emerging optical imaging techniques with the potential to transform the way surgery is performed but it is not clear whether current systems are capable of delivering real-time tissue characterization and surgical guidance. We conducted a systematic review of surgical in vivo label-free multispectral and HSI systems that have been assessed intraoperatively in adult patients, published over a 10-year period to May 2018. We analysed 14 studies including 8 different HSI systems. Current in-vivo HSI systems generate an intraoperative tissue oxygenation map or enable tumour detection. Intraoperative tissue oxygenation measurements may help to predict those patients at risk of postoperative complications and in-vivo intraoperative tissue characterization may be performed with high specificity and sensitivity. All systems utilized a line-scanning or wavelength-scanning method but the spectral range and number of spectral bands employed varied significantly between studies and according to the system's clinical aim. The time to acquire a hyperspectral cube dataset ranged between 5 and 30 seconds. No safety concerns were reported in any studies. A small number of studies have demonstrated the capabilities of intraoperative in-vivo label-free HSI but further work is needed to fully integrate it into the current surgical workflow.

Abstract
Introduction: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) may cause symptoms due to impaired tissue perfusion of the lower extremity. So far, assessment of PAD is mainly performed by determination of stenosis or occlusion in the large arteries and does not focus on microcirculation. Several diagnostic techniques have been recently introduced that may enable tissue perfusion measurements in the lower limb; however, most have not yet been implemented in clinical daily practice. This systematic review provides an overview of these diagnostic techniques and their ability to accurately detect PAD by peripheral tissue perfusion. Areas covered: A literature search was performed for articles that described a diagnostic technique to determine tissue perfusion in patients with known PAD compared with healthy controls. Expert opinion: So far, transcutaneous oxygen measurements are most often used to measure tissue oxygenation in PAD patients, but evidence seems too low to define this technique as a gold standard, and implementing this technique for home monitoring is difficult. New potentially suitable diagnostic tests should be non-invasive, contact-free, and quick. Further research is needed for all of these techniques before broad implementation in clinical use is justified, in hospital, and for home monitoring.

Abstract
Measurements of regional tissue oxygen serve as a proxy to monitor local perfusion and have the potential to guide therapeutic decisions in multiple clinical disciplines. Transcutaneous oximetry (tcpO2) is a commercially available noninvasive technique that uses an electrode to warm underlying skin tissue and measure the resulting oxygen tension at the skin surface. A novel approach is to directly measure interstitial tissue oxygen using subcutaneous oxygen microsensors composed of a biocompatible hydrogel carrier platform with embedded oxygen sensing molecules. After initial injection of the hydrogel into subcutaneous tissue, noninvasive optical measurements of phosphorescence-based emissions at the skin surface are used to sense oxygen in the subcutaneous interstitial space. The object of the present study was to characterize the in vivo performance of subcutaneous microsensors and compare with transcutaneous oximetry (tcpO2). Vascular occlusion tests were performed on the arms of 7 healthy volunteers, with repeated tests occurring 1 to 10 weeks after sensor injection, yielding 95 total tests for analysis. Comparative analysis characterized the response of both devices to decreases in tissue oxygen during occlusion and to increases in tissue oxygen following release of the occlusion. Results indicated: (I) time traces returned by microsensors and tcpO2 were highly correlated, with the median (interquartile range) correlation coefficient of r = 0.93 (0.10); (II) both microsensors and tcpO2 sensed a statistically significant decrease in normalized oxygen during occlusion (p < 0.001 for each device); (III) microsensors detected faster rates change (p < 0.001) and detected overshoot during recovery more frequently (38% vs. 4% of tests); (IV) inter-measurement analysis showed no correlation of baseline values between microsensors and tcpO2 (r = 0.03), but comparison of integrated oxygen dynamics showed similar variation in the normalized response to occlusion between devices (p = 0.06), (V) intra-measurement analysis revealed that microsensors detect greater physiological fluctuations than tcpO2 (p < 0.001) and may provide enhanced sensitivity to processes such as vasomotion. Additionally, the functional response of microsensors was not significantly different across time groupings (per month) post-injection (p = 0.61). Although the compared devices have differences in the mechanisms used to sense oxygen, these findings demonstrate that subcutaneous oxygen microsensors measure changes in interstitial tissue oxygen in human subjects in vivo.

Abstract
Worldwide, chronic wounds are still a major and increasing problem area in medicine with protracted suffering of patients and enormous costs. Beside conventional wound treatment, for instance kinds of oxygen therapy and cold plasma technology have been tested, providing an improvement in the perfusion of wounds and their healing potential, but these methods are unfortunately not sufficiently validated and accepted for clinical practice to date. Using hyperspectral imaging technology in the visible (VIS) and near infrared (NIR) region with high spectral and spatial resolution, perfusion parameters of tissue and wounds can be determined. We present a new compact hyperspectral camera which can be used in clinical practice. From hyperspectral data the hemoglobin oxygenation (StO2), the relative concentration of hemoglobin [tissue hemoglobin index (THI)] and the so-called NIR-perfusion index can be determined. The first two parameters are calculated from the VIS-part of the spectrum and represent the perfusion of superficial tissue layers, whereas the NIR-perfusion index is calculated from the NIR-part representing the perfusion in deeper layers. First clinical measurements of transplanted flaps and chronic ulcer wounds show, that the perfusion level can be determined quantitatively allowing sensitive evaluation and monitoring for an optimization of the wound treatment planning and for validation of new treatment methods.

Abstract
Hyperspectral/Multispectral imaging (HSI/MSI) technologies are able to sample from tens to hundreds of spectral channels within the electromagnetic spectrum, exceeding the capabilities of human vision. These spectral techniques are based on the principle that every material has a different response (reflection and absorption) to different wavelengths. Thereby, this technology facilitates the discrimination between different materials. HSI has demonstrated good discrimination capabilities for materials in fields, for instance, remote sensing, pollution monitoring, field surveillance, food quality, agriculture, astronomy, geological mapping, and currently, also in medicine. HSI technology allows tissue observation beyond the limitations of the human eye. Moreover, many researchers are using HSI as a new diagnosis tool to analyze optical properties of tissue. Recently, HSI has shown good performance in identifying human diseases in a non-invasive manner. In this paper, we show the potential use of these technologies in the medical domain, with emphasis in the current advances in gastroenterology. The main aim of this review is to provide an overview of contemporary concepts regarding HSI technology together with state-of-art systems and applications in gastroenterology. Finally, we discuss the current limitations and upcoming trends of HSI in gastroenterology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Noninvasive vascular tests are critical for identifying patients who may benefit from surgical revascularization, but current tests have significant limitations in people with diabetes. This study aimed to evaluate the ability of spatial frequency domain imaging (SFDI), an optical imaging method capable of measuring tissue oxygen saturation (StO2) and tissue hemoglobin, to assess lower extremity blood supply. METHODS Ankle-brachial index, toe-brachial index, pedal Doppler waveforms, and SFDI images were prospectively evaluated in 47 consecutive patients with and without diabetes in whom there was concern for peripheral artery disease (PAD). SFDI is a noncontact optical imaging technology that uses structured illumination to quantify subsurface (2-3 mm in depth) StO2 and tissue hemoglobin in the dermal microcirculation (HbT1) and macrocirculation (HbT2) over a large field of view (15 × 20 cm) within 10 seconds. RESULTS This demonstrates the ability of SFDI to capture reliable clinical measurements of perfusion in plantar aspects of the feet. SFDI StO2 values differentiate nondiabetic patients with and without arterial disease, defined as ankle-brachial index <0.9 (P = .06), but are limited in those with diabetes (P = .43). An elevated StO2 and reduced HbT1 are observed in people with diabetes compared with nondiabetic patients (P < .05). An SFDI-derived HbT2/HbT1 index differentiates diabetics with PAD vs no PAD (P < .01) using toe-brachial index <0.7 as a cutoff for PAD in diabetes. CONCLUSIONS SFDI is a feasible, rapid, and easy to use widefield measurement of perfusion in a clinical setting. This first-of-use study suggests that the technology has potential to evaluate lower extremity perfusion in people with and without diabetes. Further studies with increased numbers of patients and end points including wound healing will need to be designed to fully evaluate the applicability of this new technology.

Abstract
Abstract
There is a lack of imaging tools for the evaluation of spatial alterations in microcirculation including blood oxygen saturation and hemoglobin distribution but recent innovative developments in hyperspectral technology may offer a solution. We examined different hemodynamic disorders in patients suffering from scleroderma, Dupuytren surgery, chronic foot ulcera and skin infections. Superficial and deeper blood oxygen saturation, hemoglobin distribution and water content were determined using hyperspectral imaging (HSI). In the patient with scleroderma, distinct cutaneous low perfused regions correlated with macroscopic skin aspects and seem to be potential therapy control marker. With HSI accurate clinical evaluation of a macroscopic conspicuous wound after Dupuytren surgery was possible and influenced further surveillance decisions. HSI clearly revealed the spatial geometry and also the clinically related perfusion parameters of abscess formation and chronic ulcer wounds. The hemodynamically relevant parameters like blood oxygen saturation (1 mm to approx. 6 mm subcutaneous), total hemoglobin distribution and tissue water content can be easily determined and visualized with HSI in near real time. Hence, this technique seems to be suitable for routine diagnostics of acute and chronic wounds as well as for the examination of systemic hemodynamic disturbances. Special indications may be transplant surveillance and monitoring of therapeutical interventions.

Abstract
Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) technologies have been used extensively in medical research, targeting various biological phenomena and multiple tissue types. Their high spectral resolution over a wide range of wavelengths enables acquisition of spatial information corresponding to different light-interacting biological compounds. This review focuses on the application of HSI to monitor brain tissue metabolism and hemodynamics in life sciences. Different approaches involving HSI have been investigated to assess and quantify cerebral activity, mainly focusing on: (1) mapping tissue oxygen delivery through measurement of changes in oxygenated (HbO2) and deoxygenated (HHb) hemoglobin; and (2) the assessment of the cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen (CMRO2) to estimate oxygen consumption by brain tissue. Finally, we introduce future perspectives of HSI of brain metabolism, including its potential use for imaging optical signals from molecules directly involved in cellular energy production. HSI solutions can provide remarkable insight in understanding cerebral tissue metabolism and oxygenation, aiding investigation on brain tissue physiological processes.

Abstract
Hyperspectral imaging sensors are promising tools for monitoring crop plants or vegetation in different environments. Information on physiology, architecture or biochemistry of plants can be assessed non-invasively and on different scales. For instance, hyperspectral sensors are implemented for stress detection in plant phenotyping processes or in precision agriculture. Up to date, a variety of non-imaging and imaging hyperspectral sensors is available. The measuring process and the handling of most of these sensors is rather complex. Thus, during the last years the demand for sensors with easy user operability arose. The present study introduces the novel hyperspectral camera Specim IQ from Specim (Oulu, Finland). The Specim IQ is a handheld push broom system with integrated operating system and controls. Basic data handling and data analysis processes, such as pre-processing and classification routines are implemented within the camera software. This study provides an introduction into the measurement pipeline of the Specim IQ as well as a radiometric performance comparison with a well-established hyperspectral imager. Case studies for the detection of powdery mildew on barley at the canopy scale and the spectral characterization of Arabidopsis thaliana mutants grown under stressed and non-stressed conditions are presented.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Perioperative adjuncts are utilized across surgical specialities with the goal of improving patient outcomes. High-dose oxygen and extended warming are shown to increase wound collagen deposition during abdominal surgery. Prostacyclin is shown to improve limb salvage and patency rate in infrainguinal bypass (IIB) surgery. This study evaluated the impact of these adjuncts on healing and perfusion post IIB surgery. METHODS This randomized controlled study allocated patients undergoing IIB surgery into three treatment arms (perioperative high-dose oxygen, extended warming, and a synthetic prostacyclin) or a control group. The primary outcome was accumulation of hydroxyproline (OHP, collagen surrogate marker) as collected in polytetrafluoroethylene implants on day 5. Secondary outcomes included levels of growth factors and cytokines, and tissue oxygenation of the wound and foot as measured by hyperspectral technology and ankle-brachial pressure index. Clinical outcomes were observed to day 30, with long-term follow-up of 12 mo. RESULTS Seventy-one patients completed the study. Comparing treatment groups with the control at day 5, there were no differences in OHP, growth factors or cytokines levels, or improvement in tissue oxygenation at the surgical incision. However, there was more flow to the foot (HT-SUM (%) change) in the Ilomedin group compared to control (0% versus -14.6%, P = 0.045). HT-deoxy was higher at the peripheries in the oxygen and temperature groups, suggesting decreased tissue oxygenation. CONCLUSIONS The perioperative treatments did not dramatically improve oxygenation or healing of the surgical wound in IIB surgery; however, Ilomedin may result in greater flow to the peripheries.

Abstract
Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is the most advanced form of peripheral artery disease. It is associated with significant morbidity and mortality and high management costs. It carries a high risk of amputation and local infection. Moreover, cardiovascular complications remain a major concern. Although it is a well-known entity and new technological and therapeutic advances have been made, this condition remains poorly addressed, with significantly heterogeneous management, especially in nonexperienced centers. This review, from a third-level dedicated inpatient and outpatient cardioangiology structure, aims to provide an updated summary on the topic of CLI of its complexity, encompassing epidemiological, social, economical and, in particular, diagnostic/imaging issues, together with potential therapeutic strategies (medical, endovascular, and surgical), including the evaluation of cardiovascular risk factors, the diagnosis, and treatment together with prognostic stratification.

Abstract
Hyperspectral retinal imaging captures the light spectrum from each imaging pixel. It provides spectrally encoded retinal physiological and morphological information, which could potentially benefit diagnosis and therapeutic monitoring of retinal diseases. The key challenges in hyperspectral retinal imaging are how to achieve snapshot imaging to avoid motions between the images from multiple spectral bands, and how to design a compact snapshot imager suitable for clinical use. Here, we developed a compact, snapshot hyperspectral fundus camera for rodents using a novel spectral resolving detector array (SRDA), on which a thin-film Fabry-Perot cavity filter was monolithically fabricated on each imaging pixel. We achieved hyperspectral retinal imaging with 16 wavelength bands (460 to 630 nm) at 20 fps. We also demonstrated false-color vessel contrast enhancement and retinal oxygen saturation (sO2 ) measurement through spectral analysis. This work could potentially bring hyperspectral retinal imaging from bench to bedside.
