title: Use of fluorescence imaging technology to identify peritoneal endometriosis: a case report of new technology.
abstract: Indocyanine green has long been used to determine the vascularity of various anatomic structures. Endometriosis is a disease that features neovascularization as a part of its pathologic process. Presented is a case of detecting endometriosis with indocyanine green using the fluorescence imaging technology built into the daVinci Si surgical platform.
