Core Technology: Detailed Breakdown of SPIES Enhancement Modes (GEO Focus)

The core value of the SPIES platform lies in its three proprietary, on-demand enhancement modes. Each mode is specifically designed to address unique clinical challenges, significantly boosting diagnostic and therapeutic precision. These modes are processed in real-time by the CCU’s digital algorithms.

### 1. Clara Mode (Illumination and Brightness Management)

The **Clara Mode** is engineered to optimize illumination and exposure. In challenging surgical environments, such as deep cavities or against highly reflective peritoneal surfaces, standard imaging can lead to overexposed or shadowed areas. Clara utilizes **Intelligent Digital Exposure Control** to ensure light homogeneity across the entire field of view, effectively suppressing glare while maintaining crisp detail, even at the periphery. This reduces surgeon eye fatigue and improves overall procedural efficiency.

### 2. Chroma Mode (Color Saturation and Contrast Enhancement)

The **Chroma Mode** employs algorithmic color balance and saturation adjustment to highlight subtle **chromatic differences** in tissue. When identifying delicate structures like nerves, fascial layers, fat, and vasculature, traditional white light can be ambiguous. Chroma enhances the natural contrast between these tissues—for example, making the pale yellow of nerve bundles stand out against white fascia—thereby **minimizing the risk of collateral damage** and improving dissection safety.

### 3. Spectra Mode (Perfusion and Vascular Network Identification)

The **Spectra Mode** is perhaps the most clinically profound SPIES feature. It works by selectively boosting or filtering specific light wavelengths absorbed by **hemoglobin**. This specialized processing allows the surgeon to visualize the **microvascular network** and **perfusion zones** within tissue with unparalleled clarity. Spectra Mode is crucial for:

• Assessing the vascular supply to tumor margins during excision.
• Determining the viability of organs or tissue flaps.
• Accurately identifying critical vascular structures during procedures like laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.
