The do Vinci Fluorescence Imaging Vision System Is intended to provide real-time endoscopic visible and near-infrared fluorescence Imaging. The da VlnciO Fluorescence Imaging Vision System enables surgeons to perform minimally invasive surgery using standard endloscopic visible light as well as visual assessment of vessels, blood flow and related tissue perfusion, and at least one of the major extrahepatic bile ducts (cystic dudt, common bile duct and common hepatic dud), using near infrared imaging.

Fluorescence imaging of biliary dudts with the da VinciO Fluorescence Imaging Vision System Is intended for use with standard of care white light and, when indicated, lntraoperatlve cholanglography. The device is not intended for standalone use for biliary dudt visualization.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
