Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

* Patients must have a pathologic confirmation of prostate cancer, bladder cancer, or kidney cancer based on previous biopsies or procedures OR a strong concern for a kidney malignancy based on computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) imaging
* Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients with a surgical history or anatomic variant that would preclude robot assisted laparoscopic approaches to their surgery (i.e. history of ventral hernia repair with mesh)
* Patients with medical co-morbidities who cannot tolerate laparoscopic surgery secondary to intra-abdominal carbon dioxide insufflation
* Patients with documented allergy or adverse drug reaction to indocyanine green or baseline serum creatinine greater than 1.5 mg/dL

Intervention(s):

procedure: photoacoustic imaging

procedure: fluorescence imaging

procedure: robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery
