Tracers can help visualize the lymphatic drainage patterns and sentinel nodes (SNs) of
individual prostate cancer patients. To determine the role of nuclear medicine in surgical …

Intraprostatic injection of the hybrid tracer indocyanine green (ICG)–99mTc-nanocolloid
enables both preoperative sentinel node (SN) identification and intraoperative visualization …

In recent years, novel techniques and tracer concepts in nuclear medicine have had a
tremendous impact on prostate cancer imaging (1). In particular, PET imaging using agents …

Purpose Diagnostic imaging modalities have moderate sensitivity for the identification of
lymph node (LN) metastases in prostate cancer (PCa) patients. Mapping the lymphatic …

Objective To determine the diagnostic accuracy of the hybrid tracer indocyanine green (ICG)-
Technetium-99 m (99mTc)-nanocolloid compared to sequential tracers of 99mTc …
