Systemic ICG with NIR imaging lowered POD 3 drainage bilirubin in liver surgery, showing safety and effectiveness in bile leak detection.
Continue readingProspective analysis of factors influencing the change of the section line based on fluorescence angiography with ICG for colorectal anastomosis
ICG angiography influenced section line changes in 16.5% of colorectal cases. Age >60 and TIFV ≥20s were key predictive risk factors.

Using ICG and technetium-99 improves SLN detection and lowers “empty pocket” risk in early-stage endometrial cancer patients.
Continue readingIntraoperative indocyanine green cholangiography (ICGC) could be helpful for young surgeons to perform emergent laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis patients: A prospective single-arm study of 97 consecutive cases
ICG cholangiography supports young surgeons in safely performing emergent laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis patients.

Quantitative ICG analysis detects flap perfusion deficits unseen by clinical assessment, aiding lower extremity reconstruction outcomes.
Continue readingIndocyanine Green and Radioisotope Tracers for Sentinel Lymph Node Mapping in Early-Stage Cervical Cancer: A Prospective Comparative Study
ICG detects more sentinel lymph nodes than radioisotopes in early cervical cancer, aiding mapping but may risk over-identification.
Continue readingRole of intraoperative indocyanine green roadmap as a safety measure in emergent laparoscopic cholecystectomy
Intraoperative ICG may reduce open conversion and hospital stay in acute cholecystitis surgery, with no proven drop in bile duct injury.
Continue readingThe efficacy of indocyanine green fluorescence in facilitating thoracic duct visualisation and mitigating injury in cervicothoracic surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis
ICG improves thoracic duct visibility and lowers chyle leak risk in cervicothoracic surgery, outperforming white light methods.
