Abstract

The causes of uterine pain are poorly understood and the development of optical diagnostics provides an opportunity to improve surgical outcomes. One hypothesis is that some conditions manifest with ischemia and others via inflammation with elevated perfusion. Our own preliminary animal models support the concept that different types of pain result in divergent effects on uterine perfusion and oxygenation. The objective of this study is to evaluate the significance of uterine oxygenation/perfusion and feasibility of optical monitoring adapted to laparoscopic cameras.
