ARIA II: A Phase III Randomized Controlled Trial of Near-Infrared Angiography During Rectosigmoid Resection and Anastomosis in Women With Ovarian Cancer

Summary

The purpose of this study is to find out whether using the PINPOINT imaging system intra-operatively can reduce the risk of anastomotic leaks and other complications after surgery for ovarian cancer, compared with standard intra-operative assessments alone. The PINPOINT endoscopic fluorescence imaging system uses a special camera and a fluorescent (glowing) dye that can evaluate the blood flow of the bowel in real-time. If there is an area that appears concerning, the surgeon can correct the problem during the procedure.
