Fluorescence goes beyond human applications, with fascinating developments in animal surgery. 🐾 A logic development, right? Considering that fluorescence originated with the discovery of Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) in jellyfish (Victor 😉).
Yesterday, we attended the inspiring Masterclass on Fluorescence Guided Surgery in small animals organized by Versavet together with Diagnostic Green, KARL STORZ in IRCAD. The masterclass demonstrated the tremendous potential of ICG (Indocyanine Green) to improve patient outcomes in a variety of animal surgical procedures. We were intrigued to learn about procedures somewhat comparable to human surgery, as well as new cutting-edge techniques like chylothorax surgery.
We’re excited to continue supporting these amazing developments and advance the future of human and veterinary surgery through knowledge exchange!
