The present invention provides a multi-spectral optical, open-field detection system utilizing light-induced-fluorescence imaging and point spectroscopy for use in in-situ diagnosis and treatment of diseased tissue with reduced sensitivity to changes in light source-target-detector geometry. The light excitation and detection optics share a common coaxial optical path which makes the present system very robust to changes in illumination-target- detector geometry. The apparatus may be used for the detection and localization of tumors or other pathological tissues both prior to treatment and for the detection of residual diseases during or after surgery or other treatments to remove or destroy the diseased tissue.

L'invention concerne un système de détection optique à champ ouvert multispectral par imagerie et spectroscopie ponctuelle à fluorescence lumineuse, pour le diagnostic et le traitement in situ de tissus malades, à sensibilité réduite aux changements de géométrie source lumineuse-cible-détecteur. Les optiques d'excitation lumineuse et de détection ont un trajet optique coaxial commun, ce qui rend le système très robuste aux changements de géométrie considérés. On peut utiliser le système pour la détection et la localisation des tumeurs ou autres tissus pathologiques, à la fois avant le traitement et pour la détection des tissus résiduels pendant ou après la chirurgie ou tel ou tel autre traitement visant à extraire ou à détruire les tissus malades.
