Abstract

Systems and methods for the detection of calculi in the biliary system are disclosed. The systems include an illumination source, one or more filters that filter a first set of illumination photons and a second set of illumination photons, as well as associated processors and detectors. The system is also designed to generates image data sets and generated information related to the location of the calculi.
