Advance of indocyanine-green in fluorescent staining tumor in surgical operation / 国际外科学杂志

ABSTRACT

Surgery is so far the most widely used and effective treatment of neoplastic diseases.However,residual tumour cells during surgery remain a major trigger of cancer recurrence and matastasis.Although intraoperative rapid pathological R0 resection can be achieved based on preoperative imageological examination,but for small satellite lesions and the naked eye can not find the error quickly and so often cause pathological presence of residual tumour cells.Thus,quick and accurate identification of residual cancer cells is crucial for prognosis of cancer patients.Indocyanine green (ICG) is a new type of fluorochrome that can stain tumours under the near-infrared fluorescence during surgery,the paper will be reviewed latest developments in the reagent for fluorescence in tumours.
