Detection of sentinel lymph nodes in patients with endometrial cancer undergoing robotic-assisted staging: A comparison of colorimetric and fluorescence imaging

To retrospectively compare results from lymphatic mapping of pelvic sentinel lymph nodes (SLN) using fluorescence near-infrared (NIR) imaging of indocyanine green (ICG) and colorimetric imaging of isosulfan blue (ISB) dyes in women with endometrial cancer (EC) undergoing robotic-assisted lymphadenectomy (RAL). A secondary aim was to investigate the ability of SLN biopsies to increase the detection of metastatic disease.
