title = "Depth detection limits of diffuse fluorescence tomography for system combination with US imaging guidance",
abstract = "We performed a depth discrimination study on a continuous-wave (CW) multichannel fluorescence tomography developed and intended to be part of a concurrent DFT-US imaging system. Different interoptode distances were used to sense the depth at which a fluorescing inclusion of ICG was located inside a liquid phantom optically mimicking living tissue. Additionally, the contrast between bulk and inclusion was adjusted by modifying the optical parameters between them. Results suggest that depth detection limits up to 30 mm could be reached with a sufficient signal-to-noise ratio, revealing the feasibility of the concept of US-guided fluorescence sensing as a surgical procedure.",
