The clinical importance of lesions detected only by ICG fluorescence remains uncertain. ICG accumulates in hepatocellular carcinoma tissue and peritumoural areas of adenocarcinomas. ICG emits fluorescence under near-infrared light at 830 nm, helping surgeons identify suspicious liver tissue. ICG is a fluorescent molecule used in image-guided surgery. ICG-only lesions should be resected only when other evidence also supports tumour presence.
