Near Infrared Fluorescent Lymph Node Mapping with Indocyanine Green in Breast Cancer Patients: A Prospective Trial

Key Points

Key points are not available for this paper at this time.

Abstract

Indocyanine green with NIR fluorescence imaging can be safely and efficiently used for real-time intraoperative lymphatic mapping in breast cancer patients. Indocyanine green performs similarly to 99mTc with regard to the number of SLNs identified, rate of failed mapping, and identification of pathologically positive SLNs.
