Canada

Viewed as a whole, the system is an example of purely Canadian technological innovation. Evolving out of a PhD thesis, SPY underwent experimental set up, prototyping, clinical testing, Canadian regulatory approvals, FDA approvals and manufacturing (Novadaq was spun off from the NRC and formed in 2000). The technology was developed at the NRC Institute for Biodiagnostics by Dr. John Docherty and (then) graduate student Rick Mangat (SPY formed his PhD thesis while at the University of Manitoba). Secondly, following an application to the Manitoba Blue Cross for a study in pigs, SPY was clinically tested at the Ottawa Heart Institute with input from Dr. Wilbur Keon and at the Sunnybrook Hospital in Toronto under Dr. Stephen Fremes.

Function

Used in plastic, reconstructive and cardiac surgery to provide real-time imaging of blood flow and tissue perfusion.To visually assess if coronary artery bypass grafts being constructed during surgery are functioning (patency);To assess arterial and venous blood flow and tissue perfusion in joined blood vessels in plastic, reconstructive and micro-surgery.

Technical

SPY imaging is the first technology available to cardiac surgeons to easily assess graft patency while the patient is on the operating table, and therefore allows for the correction of problems before closing the incision. Prior to this system, the standard was X-ray contrast angiography. Large, expensive and cumbersome, this technique exposed patients who would have compromised renal function during surgery to the dangers of X-rays.The use of ICG dye injected into patients is integral to the system. The absorption and emission spectra of ICG falls within the near infrared (NIR) portion of the optical spectrum in which there is the fewest substances in the body that absorb light. The result is a light that penetrates deeper into tissues, providing surgeons with improved imaging of vessels.
