Intraoperative Near-infrared Imaging Can Identify Neoplasms and Aid in Real-time Margin Assessment During Pancreatic Resection

Objective:To determine if intraoperative near-infrared (NIR) imaging carries benefit in resection of pancreatic neoplasms.Background:Resection of pancreatic malignancies is hindered by high rates of local and distant recurrence from positive margins and unrecognized metastases. Improved tumor visual
