RESUMO

Commercially available near-infrared (NIR) dyes, including indocyanine green (ICG), display an end-tail of the fluorescence emission spectrum detectable in the short-wave infrared (SWIR) window. Imaging methods based on the second NIR spectral region (1,000-1,700 nm) are gaining interest within the biomedical imaging community due to minimal autofluorescence and scattering, allowing higher spatial resolution and depth sensitivity. Using a SWIR fluorescence imaging device, the properties of ICG vs. heptamethine cyanine dyes with emission >800 nm were evaluated using tissue-simulating phantoms and animal experiments. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that an increased rigidity of the heptamethine chain may increase the SWIR imaging performance due to the bathochromic shift of the emission spectrum. Fluorescence SWIR imaging of capillary plastic tubes filled with dyes was followed by experiments on healthy animals in which a time series of fluorescence hindlimb images were analyzed. Our findings suggest that higher spatial resolution can be achieved even at greater depths (>5 mm) or longer wavelengths (>1,100 nm), in both tissue phantoms and animals, opening the possibility to translate the SWIR prototype toward clinical application.
