First seen Jan 20, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 21 times
Summary
This early study tested a new imaging system that uses a special dye to make cancer cells glow during surgery. 18 adults with cancer that had spread to the lining of the abdomen (peritoneum) took part. The goal was to see if the system could safely help surgeons find and remove more cancer than they could see with the naked eye.
