Abstract
Technologies relate to imaging a treatment area during laser treatment using a time-gated image capture device and an electronic display. During laser treatment, a physician may monitor a treatment area to ensure efficacy and to prevent over-treatment. Light reflected from the area that includes the treatment area may be detected by an image capture component and converted to a signal. An image processor may then generate image data based on the signal and provide the image data to be displayed on an electronic device. A gating component may send instructions to the image capture component and/or the image processor to prevent inclusion of light from one or more laser pulses generated during treatment. Excluding light from the laser pulses may prevent glare in captured images for allowing a monitoring physician to safely and accurately monitor the treatment area.
