A near-infrared fluorescent imaging method for identifying the target segmental bronchus in thoracoscopic anatomical segmentectomy

Pulmonary segmentectomy requires a detailed anatomical understanding. Although 3-dimensional computed tomography (CT) assists in enabling thoracoscopic segmentectomy,1 segmental bronchus identification is challenging.2 Therefore, we devised a technique to overcome this difficulty.
