Abstract: A surgical method including positioning an optical probe within a tissue at a target location in a body of a patient; emitting electromagnetic radiation from the optical probe toward the tissue; and receiving a spectra at the optical probe; generating, based on the spectra, by a tissue classification system, a diagnosis classification indicative of a condition of the tissue and treating the tissue with a treatment modality selected based on the diagnosis classification. The spectra is generated by the tissue in response to the emitted electromagnetic radiation.

Abstract: A method of evaluating an image indicating a potential presence of a cancer lesion at a location within a prostate of a patient by transmitting light from an optical probe toward a location, receiving fluorescence spectra by the optical probe from the location, and generating a visual display of a diagnosis classification so as to confirm or contradict the existence of the cancer lesion at the location.

Abstract: A system and method for testing tissue in a patient. An optical probe illuminating the tissue generates reflected light corresponding to the illuminated tissue. A spectrometer and a tissue classification system provide a diagnostic classification. A treatment device delivers treatment to the tissue while the probe is in position to sense the reflected light.

Abstract: A system, method, and storage device storing computer executable instructions for use in tissue analysis and therapy. A motorized optical probe for illuminating tissue generates light fluorescence and/or diffuse reflectance signals corresponding to the illuminated tissue. One or more ultrasound, CT and MRI imaging guidance systems identify the position of the optical probes relative to the tissue. An imaging system generates a three-dimensional image of the tissue based on the generated light signals and the identified position of the optical probe.

Abstract: A system, method, and storage device storing computer executable instructions for use in tissue analysis and therapy. An optical probe array has at least two or more optical probes for illuminating tissue and generates light fluorescence and/or diffuse reflectance signals corresponding to the illuminated tissue. One or more ultrasound, CT and MRI imaging guidance systems identify the position of the optical probes relative to the tissue. The imaging guidance system can also be a fusion of an MRI or CT image provided by the MRI or CT imaging guidance system and an ultrasound image provided by the ultrasound imaging guidance system. An imaging system generates a three-dimensional image of the tissue based on the generated light signals and the identified position of the optical probes.
