U.S., Jan. 24 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07362485) titled 'Finding Sentinel Lymph Nodes During Mastectomy Using Indocyanine Green (INIGMA Study)' on Jan. 09.
Brief Summary: This pilot study evaluates the diagnostic value of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence for sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) performed through the mastectomy incision in breast cancer patients.
Women with clinically node-negative, invasive T1-T3 breast cancer undergoing mastectomy with SLNB at St. Antonius or Isala Hospital will be included. All patients receive standard 99mTc injection preoperatively, followed by 5 mg (2mL) ICG injection after anesthesia. The axilla will be explored for fluorescent lymph nodes via the...
