Health condition
The study is designed as an observational pilot study. The measured diffuse reflectance and fluorescence spectra acquired in this pilot study will not be shared with the physicians during the interventional procedure.
Patients eligible for inclusion into this study are patients admitted to The Netherlands Cancer Institute (NKI-AvL) for elective surgery.
Suitable patients are patients scheduled for:
- inguinal or axillary lymph node dissection (femoral nerve and side braches, thoracodorsal nerve)
- cervical lymph node dissection (great auricular nerve)
- parotidectomy (facial nerve)
- rectal resection for rectal carcinoma
- soft tissue tumour resection
