ICG Dye Could Change Vulvar Cancer Care

Big news for vulvar cancer treatment: indocyanine green (ICG) dye is matching the gold-standard dual tracers for finding sentinel lymph nodes, but with way less hassle. Researchers reviewed 88 studies and found ICG’s detection rates are just as good as the usual technetium-99m plus blue dye combo. This could mean fewer logistics and smoother surgeries. SPIO tracers also look promising, but need more research. Could we be seeing a new standard for SLN mapping soon? #VulvarCancer #MedicalResearch #CancerCare #WomensHealth #Oncology #Health
