COMPARATIVE ANALYZES OF ICG-VA, DIVA, FLOW 800 IMAGING IN CEREBROVASCULAR SURGERY

Abstract

It is the most important to visualize cerebral vessels along with its surrounding structures during cerebrovascular surgery and it can be easier with real-time angiographic imaging. There are different kinds of indocyanine green dye based videoangiography are commonly used in cerebrovascular surgery. The objective. Comparative analyzing of ICG-AG, DIVA and Flow 800 color mapping in cerebrovascular surgery. Materials and methods. Real time surgery assessment of vascular and surrounding structures in 29 cerebral aneurysms clipping, one STA-MCA bypass and 2 carotid artery endarterectomy had been performed using ICG-VA, DIVA, flow 800 color mapping from August to October 2019. Result. In 23 cases in cerebral aneurysms clipping ICG-VA could not clearly visualize perforators compared to its’ better visualization by DIVA. In 3 cases, occlusion of perforators were assessed by DIVA after clip application which was solved by reapplication of surgical clips. In one STA-MCA bypass surgery, patency and sequences of blood inflow to cortical branches of MCA (M4) from recently anastomosed STA branches were assessed with ICG-VA, DIVA and Flow 800 color mapping. Visualization of the lack of blood flow and fluttering atherosclerotic plaques in carotid endarterectomy was observed by ICG-VA, DIVA, flow 800 mapping. Conclusion. In real time cerebrovascular surgery, ICG-VA, DIVA, and Flow 800 color mapping can be effective tool to better visualization of vascular and surrounding structures. Benefits of flow 800 color mapping outweighs the advantages of both ICG-VA and DIVA. However, DIVA is also better than ICG-VA to visualize
