Résumé

Indocyanine green fluorescence imaging (ICG-FI) may be used to visualize intestinal perfusion prior to anastomosis. Methods for quantification of the fluorescence signal are required to ensure an objective evaluation. The aim of this study was to evaluate a method for quantification of relative perfusion and to investigate the correlation between the perfusion level and the anastomotic strength.
