Abstract

Fluorescence, hyperspectral, and/or laser scanning imaging in a light deficient environment. A system includes an emitter for emitting pulses of electromagnetic radiation and an image sensor for sensing reflected electromagnetic radiation. The system includes a controller configured to synchronize timing of the pulses of electromagnetic radiation during a blanking period of the image sensor. The system is such that at least a portion of the pulses of electromagnetic radiation emitted by the emitter comprises one or more of: electromagnetic radiation having a wavelength from about 513 nm to about 545 nm; electromagnetic radiation having a wavelength from about 565 nm to about 585 nm; electromagnetic radiation having a wavelength from about 900 nm to about 1000 nm; an excitation wavelength of electromagnetic radiation that causes a reagent to fluoresce; or a laser scanning pattern.
