ICG near-infrared imaging: Indocyanine green tracer is used to guide laparoscopic D2 lymph node dissection for gastric cancer
Study summary
Patients with locally advanced gastric adenocarcinoma (CT2-4a N0/+ M0) were selected as study subjects to investigate the safety, efficacy, and feasibility of ICG near-infrared imaging tracing in guiding laparoscopic D2 lymph node dissection for gastric cancer by comparing injection ICG group and non-injection ICG group.
