abstract = {Invisible near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging with indocyanine green (ICG) has advantage in detecting for certain anatomy. The method is currently used in some types of surgery, such as sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping, intraoperative solid tumor identification, and organ perfusion assessment. However, the literature of clinical application in thoracic surgery is lacking. This paper presents the advantages, current applications and potential developments of NIR fluorescence imaging with ICG in thoracic surgery.},
