## Indications for use
The VS3-Iridium System is intended to provide real-time visible and near infrared fluorescence imaging in both open and minimally invasive procedures. Upon intravenous administration and use of an ICG consistent with its approved labeling, the VS3-Iridium System is used to perform fluorescence imaging visualization of vessels, blood flow and tissue perfusion before during and after general minimally invasive surgical procedures and plastic, micro-, reconstructive surgeries. Upon interstitial administration and use of ICG consistent with its approved labeling, the Endoscope configuration of the VS3-Iridium System is used to perform intraoperative fluorescence imaging and visualization of the lymphatic system, including lymphatic vessels and lymph nodes. Upon administration and use of pafolacianine consistent with its approved labeling, the VS3-Iridium 785 nm System is used to perform intraoperative fluorescence imaging of tissues that have taken up the drug.
