Chinese Academy of SciencesResearchers have introduced an innovative surgical technique for treating bladder cancer that could revolutionize the field of urological oncology. By using fluorescent imaging to guide the dissection of pelvic lymph nodes, that the method enhances both the precision and efficiency of surgery. The technique involves injecting indocyanine green (ICG) into the lower limbs and perineum, providing surgeons with real-time visual guidance.
