Case Video
At first, it was difficult to identify the bleeding point due to continuous bleeding after the procedure. However, after turning on the RDI function, the bleeding site could be clearly identified. By distinguishing between the bleeding source and its surroundings and by quickly stopping bleeding, additional time and effort could be saved.
Overall Comment
It was difficult to find the bleeding point particularly in heavy bleeding. However, when observed with RDI, the color of blood was observed as light reddish brown, making it easier to find the bleeding point than it was before. With this point of view, RDI enhances the efficiency of the procedure and patient safety at the same time it increases the rate of hemostasis of possible bleeding during and after resection.
