Abstract
A method for correcting a fluorescence image of an object, for example a biological tissue that can include fluorescent agents. The distance between a fluorescence probe generating the fluorescence image and the object examined is measured. This distance is used to apply a correction function to the fluorescence image. The method may find application in perioperative fluorescence imaging for diagnosis and monitoring of evolution of pathologies, for example of cancers.
