Glowing dye could help surgeons spot hidden sarcoma cells during surgery
NCT ID NCT04719156
First seen Feb 26, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 12 times
Summary
This study tests whether a fluorescent dye called indocyanine green (ICG) can help surgeons identify leftover tumor tissue during sarcoma removal surgery. About 110 adults with bone or soft tissue sarcomas will receive the dye before surgery, and a special camera will check for glowing areas that might indicate remaining cancer. The goal is to see if this method reduces the chance of tumor recurrence compared to standard visual inspection alone.
