Intrapatient application of lymphoscintigraphy and near-infrared fluorescence in canine and feline sentinel lymph node mapping and removal
Despite some differences between the techniques, NIRF with indocyanine green can be considered a practical and viable alternative to lymphoscintigraphy for sentinel lymphocentrum mapping and guided sentinel lymph node removal in small animal oncologic practice, particularly where lymphoscintigraphy is not accessible.
