INDOCYANINE GREEN (ICG)

This study tests a less invasive surgery for people with early-stage colon cancer (stage I). Instead of removing a large section of the colon, doctors will remove only the tumor and a few nearby lymph nodes using a special dye. The goal is to see if this smaller surgery works as …

This study tests if a safe green dye (indocyanine green) can help surgeons find lymph nodes that might contain cancer during a mastectomy, without needing a separate cut under the arm. About 90 women with early-stage breast cancer will receive the dye and a standard radioactive t…

This study aims to help Dutch hospitals switch from using a radioactive tracer to a green dye called indocyanine green (ICG) to find the first lymph node that breast cancer may spread to. The dye is given during surgery, avoids radiation, and requires no extra hospital visits. Re…

This study looks at how the dose and storage conditions of a dye called indocyanine green (ICG) affect its ability to find sentinel lymph nodes during surgery for cervical, endometrial, and vulvar cancers. Researchers will enroll 30 patients to see which approach works best and s…

This study looks at whether a special green dye (indocyanine green) can help surgeons see and fix leaks during laparoscopic Heller-Dor surgery for achalasia, a condition that makes swallowing difficult. About 70 adults with type I or II achalasia will take part. The dye is inject…
