ICG-based dynamic contrast-enhanced fluorescence imaging (DCE-FI) and intraoperative DCE- magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have been carried out nearly simultaneously in three lower extremity bone infection cases to investigate the relationship between these two imaging modalities for assessing bone blood perfusion during open orthopedic surgeries. Time-intensity curves in the corresponding regions of interest of two modalities were derived for comparison. The results demonstrated that ICG-based DCE-FI has higher sensitivity to perfusion changes while DCE-MRI provides superior and supplemental depth-related perfusion information. Research applying the depth-related perfusion information derived from MRI to improve the overall analytic modeling of intraoperative DCE-FI is ongoing.
