Abstract
A method for enhancing a near-infrared fluorescence image includes providing a NIR fluorescence image produced by detecting light in the NIR-I or NIR-IIa windows emitted by fluorophores; and inputting the NIR fluorescence image to a convolutional neural network to produce as output a translated image, where the convolutional neural network is trained using a set of NIR-I or NIR-IIa fluorescence images and a set of NIR-IIb fluorescence images. Preferably, the convolutional neural network is a U-Net.
