| Abstract |
Intraoperative indocyanine green videoangiography (ICG-VA) has been widely used in vascular surgery, where vessels are clearly shown as white on a black background. However, other structures cannot be observed during ICG-VA. We have developed a new, high-resolution intraoperative imaging system (dual-image VA [DIVA]) to simultaneously visualize both light and near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence images from ICG-VA, allowing observation of other structures. The operative field was illuminated via an operating microscope by halogen and xenon lamps with a filter to eliminate wavelengths over 780 nm. In the camera unit, visible light was filtered to 400-700 nm and NIR fluorescence emission light was filtered to 800-900 nm using a special sensor unit with an optical filter. Light and NIR fluorescence images were simultaneously visualized on a single monitor. Our system clearly visualized the operative field together with fluorescence-enhanced blood flow. In aneurysm surgeries, we could confirm incomplete clipping with the neck remnant or with remnant flow into the aneurysm. In cases of arteriovenous malformation or arteriovenous fistula, feeding arteries and draining veins were easily distinguished. This system allows observation of the operative field and enhanced blood flow by ICG together in real time and may facilitate various types of neurovascular surgery. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 19 January 2022.
All research outputs
#7,494,138
of 22,908,162 outputs
Outputs from Acta Neurochirurgica
#587
of 1,924 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#88,955
of 262,446 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Acta Neurochirurgica
#5
of 25 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,908,162 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,924 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.2. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 50% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 262,446 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 57% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 25 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 80% of its contemporaries.
