Indocyanine green near-infrared fluorescence bowel perfusion assessment to prevent anastomotic leakage in minimally invasive colorectal surgery (AVOID): a multicentre, randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial
AVOID trial showed no significant reduction in 90-day anastomotic leakage rates with ICG fluorescence across colorectal surgeries.
Continue readingRole of Qualitative and Quantitative Indocyanine Green Angiography to Assess Mastectomy Skin Flaps Perfusion: A Prospective Monocentric Experience
This study examines how qualitative and quantitative ICG angiography can predict mastectomy skin flap necrosis, aiding in better surgical planning.
Continue readingGlobal trends in the application of fluorescence imaging in pancreatic diseases: a bibliometric and knowledge graph analysis
This study explores global research trends and key hotspots in fluorescence imaging for pancreatic diseases, offering insights into future directions.
Continue readingThe potential of indocyanine green fluorescence detection in surgical cut margin of breast conserving surgery
ICG fluorescence-guided technology shows promise for intraoperative margin assessment in breast conserving surgery, offering comparable sensitivity to frozen section analysis.
Continue readingDevelopments in the Use of Indocyanine Green (ICG) Fluorescence in Colorectal Surgery
ICG advances colorectal surgery by improving anastomosis evaluation and preoperative tumor marking. Further research on lymphatic mapping and quantitative ICG is needed.
Continue readingComparison between indocyanine green angiography and optical coherence tomography angiography for the detection of nonexudative macular neovascularization
ICGA and OCTA both show comparable sensitivity in detecting nonexudative macular neovascularization, with multimodal imaging providing the most comprehensive screening.
Continue readingApplication of indocyanine green-labeled fluorescence technology in laparoscopic total extra-peritoneal inguinal hernia repair surgery: a preliminary study
ICG fluorescence in TEP repair reduces complications like bleeding and sac rupture, with no impact on spermatic artery hemodynamics.
Continue readingThe role of ureteric indocyanine green fluorescence in colorectal surgery: a retrospective cohort study
ICG fluorescence improved ureter visualization but did not reduce injury rates in colorectal surgery. Median stent insertion time was longer with ICG-FI.
Continue readingComparison of indocyanine green dye fluorescent cholangiography with intra-operative cholangiography in laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a meta-analysis
Meta-analysis compares ICG-FC and IOC in visualizing the biliary tree during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. ICG-FC improves common hepatic duct visualization and is shown to be safe.
