Clinical Practice Status of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy for Early-Stage Breast Cancer Patients in China: A Multicenter Study.

8 NIR fluorescence imaging using indocyanine green (ICG) has been proven to have valid diagnostic performance for sentinel lymph node detection and showed a trend toward better axilla staging. 9 Dual tracing modality using ICG plus methylene blue has been demonstrated to improve the mapping performance and exhibit great potential as an alternative to traditional standard mapping methods. 10 Although mapping tracers are constantly evolving, their application in the real world is still unclear.
