PREFERRED ANTERIOR CAPSULOTOMY LOCATION PROVIDED BY TRYPAN BLUE OPTHALMIC SOLUTION
Trypan Blue ophthalmic solutions are used to create and identify a landmark on the anterior capsule of an eye and thus identify a preferred location for an anterior capsulotomy during cataract surgery.
METHODS OF CANCER DETECTION USING PARPI-FL
The present disclosure describes methods of use of a composition comprising PARPi-fl to be administered to the oral cavity (e.g., via topical application to surfaces of the oral cavity) followed by imaging of the oral cavity for detection of squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity (e.g., in vivo, e.g., in a dental office setting or intraoperatively). The results disclosed herein show that topically applied PARPi-fl and subsequent intraoperative imaging of oral cavities can improve surgical removal of squamous cell carcinoma cells compared to healthy cells.
Ophthalmic compositions, and ocular uses thereof, of indigo carmine
An ophthalmic composition comprising Indigo Carmine, or Indigo Carmine and Trypan Blue, for identification of intraocular structures and membranes within the eye, and methods of delivering and using the same, for surgical treatments of the eye, including glaucoma and cataract surgery.
Dye enhanced visualization of cataract surgery
The invention relates generally to the use of dyes to enhance visualization of tissues and boundaries of openings in tissues during cataract surgery.
Method of evaluating lymphatic system function
An embodiment relates to a method of evaluating a lymphatic system function including: selecting one or a plurality of lymphatic routes to be evaluated from a plurality of lymphatic routes existing in four limbs; determining an injection site of a visualization agent based on information on the selected lymphatic route and injection sites of peripheries of the four limbs corresponding to the selected lymphatic route; injecting the visualization agent from the selected injection site; and visualizing the injected visualization agent and evaluating functions of the one or plurality of lymphatic routes to be evaluated.
TOPICAL APPLICATION OF NERVE LABELING DYES FOR IMAGE-GUIDED SURGERY
The present invention relates to a topical agent that binds specifically to myelin basic protein and its method of use and determining myelination in the subject by detecting the agent present in the subject. A kit containing the agent or its derivatives for use in detecting myelin basic protein is also provided.
DYE ENHANCED VISUALIZATION OF CATARACT SURGERY
The invention relates generally to the use of dyes to enhance visualization of tissues and boundaries of openings in tissues during cataract surgery.
Ophthalmic Compositions, and Ocular Uses Thereof, of Indigo Carmine
An ophthalmic composition comprising Indigo Carmine, or Indigo Carmine and Trypan Blue, for identification of intraocular structures and membranes within the eye, and methods of delivering and using the same, for surgical treatments of the eye, including glaucoma and cataract surgery.
Topical application of nerve labeling dyes for image-guided surgery
The present invention relates to a topical agent that binds specifically to myelin basic protein and its method of use and determining myelination in the subject by detecting the agent present in the subject. A kit containing the agent or its derivatives for use in detecting myelin basic protein is also provided.
SINGLE-USE CONTACT TIP FOR TONOMETER
A contact tip for a contact tonometer has a body including a contact surface, and a coating applied to the contact surface. The coating includes a light-activated material and a biocompatible water soluble adhesive for adhering the coating to the contact surface. The water soluble adhesive dissolves upon contact with the corneal tear film during a tonometric measurement, thereby releasing the light-activated material into the tear film. The present disclosure further provides a single-use tonometer contact tip product which includes a sterilized contact tip having the mentioned contact surface coating, and an opaque package containing the sterilized contact tip.
