Quantitative fluorescence angiography detects dynamic changes in gastric perfusion.

We present a novel study showing that the q-ICG method can detect dynamic changes in local tissue perfusion induced by hemorrhage and resuscitation. As regional gastrointestinal perfusion may be significantly reduced, while hemodynamic variables such as MAP or heart rate remain stable, q-ICG may provide an objective, non-invasive method for detecting regional early ischemia, strengthening surgical decision making.
