titleOfInvention | Optical localization fibers |
abstract | Optical localization fiber embodiments (200, 260, 270, 290, 310, 330, and 350) suitable for preoperative localization of soft tissue lesions by X-ray mammography, CT MRI, ultrasonography or nuclear medicine are provided. In these embodiments at least one hook is carried by an optical fiber for retention in soft tissue. The tip of the optical fiber is visible through the soft tissue when the origin of the optical fiber is attached to a light source. Embodiments include dual hooks (224, 226) attached through a hole (214) in the tip portion (206), a hook (262) fused to the tip (264), a hook (272) glued to the tip (274), a hook (292) held on by a cap (294), a hook (312) screwed into the tip (320), a hook (340) held in a bore in the tip portion (336) by cement, and a hook (358) in a groove (352). A supplemental optical fiber probe (250) provides a method for locating the fibers inside soft tissue. |
