[Combined endoscopic monitoring of treatment effectiveness in tracheal and/or bronchial malignancies using autofluorescence spectroscopy].
The paper presents our experience with application of a diagnostic procedure which enhanced information potential of endoscopy. Its efficiency increased due to use of an algorithm which included several stages carried out during an endoscopic procedure: routine bronchoscopy, spectroscopy in light (400-700 nm), autofluorescence spectroscopy including nearest infrared spectrum (720-800 nm). During treatment, the latter registered the dynamics of glow intensity ratios in the red (600-680 nm) and green (500-550 nm) spectra. The efficacy of our method was determinated by the precise delineation of the involvement area and its changes in the course of treatment which matched final analysis data.
