Summary

This study tests if a green dye, called ICG, can help surgeons see tumors more clearly during surgery in children and teens with solid tumors. The dye is injected before surgery and makes tumor tissue glow under a special camera. The goal is to see if this technique helps remove all of the tumor, which is important for a cure. About 230 participants will be enrolled.
