Abstract

The complexity of intracranial anatomy and pathologies warrants the optimization of multimodal techniques to ensure safe and effective surgical treatment. Endoscopy is being more widely implemented in intracranial procedures as an important visualization tool, as it can offer panoramic views of deep structures while reducing the invasiveness of approaches. Fluorophores are frequently utilized to augment the identification of intracranial anatomic landmarks and pathologies. This chapter discusses the integration of these two surgical adjuncts, highlighting the key fluorophores used in endoscopic neurosurgery and their clinical applications.
