The present invention addresses the problem of providing a therapeutic agent for abdominal aortic aneurysms, with which pharmacotherapy is possible. The present invention provides a therapeutic agent for an aortic aneurysm comprising, as an active component, (&#x2212;)-6-[3-[3-cyclopropyl-3-[(1R,2R)-2-hydroxycyclohexyl]ureido]propoxy]-2(1H)-quinolinone or a salt thereof, or a solvate of these.

Pharmaceutical composition for treatment of aortic aneurysm

A fluorescence detection device comprises: a plurality of light sources that apply an excitation light from an outside of a living body toward fluorescent dye previously injected into the living body; and a plurality of detectors that detect fluorescence emitted from the fluorescent dye by the excitation light, and output the detected fluorescence as an electric signal. The plurality of light sources and the plurality of detectors are arranged in at least one line. At least one detector is placed between two light sources, and at least one light source is placed between two detectors.

Fluorescence detection device

The present invention has an object to measure lymphatic pressure with more safety and ease at lower cost. To achieve this, a lymphatic pressure-measuring systemincludes: a manchettefitted on a vital observation portion; a measurement unitthat measures and outputs pressure of the manchette; an infrared camerathat detects fluorescence emitted from fluorescent dye previously injected into a lymph vessel in the vital observation portion; and an image processing devicethat generates and displays an image showing a position of the fluorescent dye in the lymph vessel based on a detection result of the infrared camera. The infrared camerarepeats the detection while the pressure of the manchettedecreases from first pressure to block a lymph flow in the vital observation portion to second pressure at restart of the lymph flow. The measurement unitrepeats the measurement during the period.
