we demonstrate high sensitivity, real-time visualization of the ureters using the combination of an intraoperative NIR fluorescence imaging system and NIR fluorescent contrast agents. Using invisible NIR light, the ureters can be found, avoided, and/or functionally assessed in the operating setting, without the use of ionizing radiation.
