Intraoperative imaging of residual ovarian cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy using indocyanine green
The use of ICG was associated with an increase in the resection of samples with residual malignant foci. Overall, hypointense areas had a higher positive PPV for malignant foci in comparison with hyperintense ICG areas (46% vs 30%), which could be interpreted in the context of dynamic changes in the tumor microenvironment or enhanced permeability and retention effect following neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
