Motivation
3
Applications• Fluorescence for therapy
guidance/ diagnosis─ Procedures with variable
temperature• RFA/microwave ablation• Electrocauterization• Laser ablation

Background
• Fluorescence intensity and temperature – Usually inversely related– Depends on substance
• Tissue– Small temperature range– Very complex
• Optical property changes– Temperature Dependent– Modulate fluorescence emission
4
• Other possible mechanisms− Loss of cell viability− Collisional quenching

• Reflectance data used in inverse Monte Carlo algorithm as input
• Output: µa, µs’
•Fluorescence max. intensity as a function of temperature
• Normalized so that peak intensity at 23°C was equal to 1.

Conclusions: In Vitro
11
Fluorescence intensity decreases with increasing temperature in human tissue
Fluorophore degradation above a certain temperature
Optical properties do not explain fluorescence decrease at 20°C-50°C

Conclusions
15
In vitro•Fluorescence intensity decreases with increasing temperature in human tissue•Optical properties do not cause fluorescence decrease from 20°C to 50°C
In vivo•Fluorescence decrease can be reproduced in vivo
•No damage•Reversible
OverallIn human tissue, optical properties and tissue damage are not the only factors that cause a change in fluorescence due to temperature.
