Fluorescence diagnosis of endometriosis on the chorioallantoic membrane using 5-aminolaevulinic acid
The chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) is a useful model for the fluorescence diagnosis of experimentally induced endometriosis. In our experimental setup 75.7% of the histologically examined tissue preparations were viable and only 24.3% showe…

BACKGROUND: The diagnosis of nonpigmented endometrial lesions by simple laparoscopic visualization is difficult and often inaccurate. We therefore sought to establish a new and more accurate method to visualize these nonpigmented peritoneal…
