Identification of Pediatric Tumors Intraoperatively Using Indocyanine Green (ICG)

ConclusionsDespite promising results from FGS, ICG use varies across the international pediatric surgical oncology community. Underreported intraoperative imaging outcomes and the diversity and rarity of childhood solid tumors hinder conclusive scientific evidence supporting adoption of ICG in pediatric surgical oncology. Further international collaborations are needed to study the applications and limitations of ICG in pediatric surgical oncology.
