- 15. A system for the fluorescent diagnosis of organs and tissues with at least one excitation light source for providing an excitation light to an examination area for a fluorescence, which due to the excitation light is produced by a fluorescent dye present in the tissue, with a camera system for generating a fluorescent image of the examination area using the excitation light and a normal image of the examination area, wherein the camera system has a single opto-electric image converter both for generating the fluorescent image and for generating the normal image under ambient light, and that the excitation light source is a pulsed light source, the light of which is superimposed by the ambient light for the normal image.
