Abstract:
One aspect of the present disclosure relates to a system that can employ multi-modal imaging to provide an image with an enhanced resolution. In some instances, the multi-modal imaging can allow an operator to determine and control a tissue margin without the need for intra-operative tissue pathology. The system can include an imaging system that includes a gamma camera to detect a gamma image and an optical imaging modality to detect an optical image. The system can also include a display device to display an enhanced gamma image created based on a function of the optical image. The enhanced gamma image illustrates a characteristic of a disease in the field of view (e.g., a lymphatic pathway, a sentinel lymph node target, or a satellite disease state).

Claim (Index 21):
A system comprising:\n a non-transitory memory storing instructions; and a processor to access he memory and execute the instructions to:\n receive a collimator-based optical image of a field of view related to a patient, a lens-based optical image of the field of view, and a gamma image of the field of view; \n determine a resolution corruption function for optical imaging based on the collimator-based optical image of the field of view and the lens-based optical image of the field of view; \n approximate a resolution corruption function for gamma imaging based on the resolution corruption function for optical imaging; and \n enhance a resolution of the gamma image of the field of view based on the resolution corruption function for gamma imaging.
