Abstract
With the development of surgical technology, indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence navigation systems may be useful in various areas of colorectal surgery, including tumor location confirmation, bowel perfusion, ureter identification, and lymph node mapping. This review provides an overview of the current status of ICG-based navigation surgery in colorectal surgery, emphasizing its role in lymphatic flow mapping. This state-of-the-art approach will allow for appropriate oncological surgeries in the field of colorectal cancer and improve the patient's prognosis.
期刊介绍:
Minimally Invasive Therapy and Allied Technologies (MITAT) is an international forum for endoscopic surgeons, interventional radiologists and industrial instrument manufacturers. It is the official journal of the Society for Medical Innovation and Technology (SMIT) whose membership includes representatives from a broad spectrum of medical specialities, instrument manufacturing and research. The journal brings the latest developments and innovations in minimally invasive therapy to its readers. What makes Minimally Invasive Therapy and Allied Technologies unique is that we publish one or two special issues each year, which are devoted to a specific theme. Key topics covered by the journal include: interventional radiology, endoscopic surgery, imaging technology, manipulators and robotics for surgery and education and training for MIS.
