- Abstract
Surgical excision is the foundation of treatment for early‐stage solid tumors in man and companion animals. Complete excision with appropriate margins of surrounding tumor‐free tissue is crucial to survival. Intraoperative imaging allows real‐time visualization of tumors, assessment of surgical margins, and, potentially, lymph nodes and satellite metastatic lesions, allowing surgeons to perform complete tumor resections while sparing surrounding vital anatomic structures. This Review will focus on the use of near‐infrared imaging and optical coherence tomography for intraoperative tumor visualization.
