Use of Indocyanine Green for Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy: Case Series and Methods Comparison
Introduction:. Sentinel lymph node biopsy is indicated for patients with biopsy-proven thickness melanoma greater than 1.0 mm. Use of lymphoscintigraphy along with vital blue dyes is the gold standard for identifying sentinel lymph nodes intraoperatively.
