Abstract

Optical imaging is a marker-free, contactless, and non-invasive technique that is able to monitor hemodynamic and metabolic brain response following neuronal activation during neurosurgery. However, a robust quantification is complicated to perform during neurosurgery due to the critical context of the operating room, which makes the calibration and adjustment of optical devices more complex. To overcome this issue, tissue-simulating objects that mimic the properties of biological tissues are required for the development of detection or diagnostic imaging systems. In this study, we developed a digital instrument simulator to optimize the development of a novel hyperspectral system for application in brain/cortex imaging. This digital phantom is based on white Monte Carlo simulations of the light propagation in tissues. The output of the Monte Carlo simulations are integrated with the key instrument parameters in order to produce realistic images. The results can be beneficial and useful within the framework of our EU-funded HyperProbe project, which aims at transforming neuronavigation during glioma resection using novel hyperspectral imaging technology.
