Title:
Sentinel lymph node detection by means of indocyanine green using the Karl Storz VITOM® fluorescence camera: a comparison between primary sentinel lymph node biopsy versus sentinel lymph node biopsy after neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: The usage of radioactive Technetium99m (Tc99m) colloid for the purpose of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) in early breast cancer is considered the gold standard in Germany. However, new tracers, such as near-infrared (NIR) imaging agents like indocyanine green (ICG) could offer an alternative in future, as they overcome drawbacks associated with radioactive Technetium99m (Tc99m) like limited availability, high costs and radioactivity exposure for both patients and surgeons. METHODS: I...     »
