Abstract:
1. A method comprising: receiving a first input associated with a first dataset from a sensor of an intraluminal device to a computing device including a non-transitory signal-bearing medium, the first dataset including data representative of a target fluorescent response in one or more target cells to excitation energy of a first energy source of the intraluminal device; receiving a second input associated with a second dataset from a targeting energy source of the intraluminal device to the computing device, the second dataset including data representative of a response to the targeting energy source including directional alignment of the first energy source with a second energy source of the intraluminal device, wherein the second energy source provides energy to at least partially ablate a target area by the second energy source; and providing a first output in real time from the computing device to the second energy source, the first output providing data to activate the second energy source to provide energy to at least partially the target area by the second energy source based on a location of the target area calculated from the first dataset including data representative of the target fluorescent response, and the second dataset including data representative of the directional alignment from the targeting energy source.
