- The study was a multi-center prospective study conducted by PeaceOC evaluating indocyanine green (ICG) for identifying sentinel lymph nodes in pediatric patients with skin and soft tissue malignancies — Sophia Schermerhorn (clinical) [Ep 4 · 0:05](https://library.globalcastmd.com/watch/indocyanine-green-assists-with-sentinel-lymph-node-mapping-in-pediatric-and-adolescent-patients-12056?t=5)
- Peritumoral injection of ICG demonstrated almost 80% sensitivity for detecting a sentinel node — Sophia Schermerhorn (clinical) [Ep 4 · 0:21](https://library.globalcastmd.com/watch/indocyanine-green-assists-with-sentinel-lymph-node-mapping-in-pediatric-and-adolescent-patients-12056?t=21)
- All sentinel nodes that contained malignancy were ICG avid — Sophia Schermerhorn (clinical) [Ep 4 · 0:28](https://library.globalcastmd.com/watch/indocyanine-green-assists-with-sentinel-lymph-node-mapping-in-pediatric-and-adolescent-patients-12056?t=28)
- ICG diagnostic performance is similar to smaller pediatric studies previously evaluating ICG and sentinel lymph node biopsy — Sophia Schermerhorn (clinical) [Ep 4 · 0:33](https://library.globalcastmd.com/watch/indocyanine-green-assists-with-sentinel-lymph-node-mapping-in-pediatric-and-adolescent-patients-12056?t=33)
- ICG may outperform blue dye localization based on previously reported literature — Sophia Schermerhorn (opinion) [Ep 4 · 0:33](https://library.globalcastmd.com/watch/indocyanine-green-assists-with-sentinel-lymph-node-mapping-in-pediatric-and-adolescent-patients-12056?t=33)
- The study did not directly compare the effectiveness of ICG to blue dye localization — Sophia Schermerhorn (clinical) [Ep 4 · 0:45](https://library.globalcastmd.com/watch/indocyanine-green-assists-with-sentinel-lymph-node-mapping-in-pediatric-and-adolescent-patients-12056?t=45)
- ICG in most cases was used in conjunction with standard localization techniques such as technetium — Sophia Schermerhorn (clinical) [Ep 4 · 0:49](https://library.globalcastmd.com/watch/indocyanine-green-assists-with-sentinel-lymph-node-mapping-in-pediatric-and-adolescent-patients-12056?t=49)

- ICG has a favorable safety profile and lacks the permanent tattooing associated with blue dye, making it an attractive visualization adjunct for pediatric sentinel lymph node biopsy — Sophia Schermerhorn (opinion) [Ep 4 · 1:02](https://library.globalcastmd.com/watch/indocyanine-green-assists-with-sentinel-lymph-node-mapping-in-pediatric-and-adolescent-patients-12056?t=62)
