Abstract
Surgical marker systems and methods for delineating a lesion margin of a subject are provided. An example system includes a handheld probe device configured to capture an optical coherence tomography (OCT) image and a processor coupled to a memory. The handheld probe device includes a handheld probe including a fiber-optic probe assembly and a marker assembly. The processor is configured to: segment, by a neural network, each pixels of the OCT into different tissue-type categories; generate one or more feature vectors based at least in part on the segmented pixels; determine, by a one-class classifier, a boundary location in the OCT image between a normal tissue and an abnormal tissue of the tissue structure; and control the marker assembly to selectively create a visible label on a tissue location of the subject, the tissue location corresponding to the boundary location.
