U.S., July 11 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07696754) titled 'Augmented-Reality ICG Fluorescence Second-Look for Residual Nodal Disease After Axillary Dissection in Breast Cancer' on June 28.
Brief Summary: This study tests whether special imaging goggles can help surgeons find lymph nodes that may be left behind during breast cancer surgery. The goggles show a fluorescent dye (indocyanine green, ICG) that is given during the operation and collects in lymph nodes.
