Fig. 5.
Processed images and concentration maps generated from the surgical MSI system data showing (a) colour image of bowel segment (proximal end to the left), (b) HbO2, (c) Hb, (d) Fat (e) SO2, (f) CoD. Concentration values for Hb, HbO2 and Fat are relative and vary with illumination conditions, therefore the maps here are indicated as ‘low’ or ‘high’. The forceps in (a) mark the position at which the surgeon plans to transect the bowel.
