Prospective evaluation of indocyanine green fluorescence for anastomotic site selection in laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery.
BACKGROUND Indocyanine Green (ICG) fluorescence imaging has emerged as a valuable tool for intraoperative assessment of bowel perfusion in colorectal surgery, with the potential to reduce anastomotic leakage. However, standardized protocols for its use remain undefined. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and...
