  • Patent number: 11547290
    Abstract: A medical imaging device, comprising a illumination unit, can be configured to illuminate a tissue area with light from a first spectral range, comprising a range of visible wavelengths, and with light from a second spectral range, which is different from the first spectral range, an imaging unit, configured to detect light from the first spectral range and to generate a first image of the tissue area on the basis of the detected light from the first spectral range and furthermore configured to detect light from the second spectral range and to generate a second image of the tissue area on the basis of the detected light from the second spectral range, and a superposition unit, configured to generate a superimposed image on the basis of the first and second image in such a way that, in the superimposed image, on the basis of a visual highlighting, it is possible to identify whether and where the tissue area comprises highlight regions which are characterized by an increased emission of light from the second s
