NCT02851368

Brief Summary

This research study will evaluate how Near Infrared Fluorescence imaging (NIFI) with indocyanine green (ICG) contrast dye can assist in the identification and diagnosis of lung nodules during surgery. NIFI is an intraoperative imaging technology that utilizes a coupled camera/fluorophore (ICG) system to fluoresce tissues of interest. Intravenous ICG is a fluorophore with a long-standing high safety profile.

Study Arms (1)

Near Infrared Fluorescence Imaging with Indocyanine Green

OTHER

Patients will receive an injection of indocyanine green (ICG) 1 day prior to surgery. Near infrared fluorescence imaging (NIFI) will be used to identify pulmonary nodules during the surgical biopsy and/or resection procedure.

Device: near infrared fluorescence imaging (NIFI)Drug: Indocyanine Green

Interventions

The NIFI system will be evaluated for its ability to 1) visualize nodules and their margins 2) differentiate between benign and malignant nodules and 3) identify additional undiagnosed nodules after receiving an injection of indocyanine green 1 day prior to planned surgery.

Near Infrared Fluorescence Imaging with Indocyanine Green

Indocyanine Green will be administered intravenously 1 day prior to NIFI.
