Abstract
A user-wearable fluorescence based visualization system comprising a multi-light lamp assembly that provides for the selected output of light using multiple light emitting sources, wherein the outputted light may be tailored to generate response wavelength by the interaction of the emitted light and a tissue illuminated by the emitted light, through the process of fluorescence, and a viewing system that allows a practitioner view the fluorescent light generated by the tissue, and distinguish between healthy and diseased tissues.
Claims9
A visualization device comprising:
- a means for retaining said device to a user;
- a means for transmitting a light at a plurality of light wavelengths, wherein selected ones of said plurality of light wavelengths causing generation of a fluorescent light when said selected ones of said plurality of wavelengths interacts with an object;
- a means for processing a reflection of said plurality of wavelengths and said generated florescent light, wherein said means for processing is configured to:
- attenuate at least one light wavelength region of said reflection of at least one of said plurality of wavelengths;
- and
- allow passage of light wavelengths of at least one of said plurality of wavelengths and said generated fluorescent light, wherein said generated fluorescent light is within said wavelengths allowed passage.
