Abstract

Abstract:

Liver cancer has become one of the common malignant tumors worldwide.At present,multiple approaches have been employed to treat liver cancer.Among them, anatomical hepatectomy is recognized as the recommended and optimal surgical treatment for liver cancer at home and abroad, whereas it still has certain limitations.Due to specific fluorescence properties, indocyanine green (ICG) can be used for fluorescence imaging during liver surgery and plays a pivotal role in assisting anatomical hepatectomy.In recent years, ICG has also been reported to be applied in preoperative interventional therapy of liver cancer.In this article, the development and application of ICG in anatomical hepatectomy were reviewed.

Key words: Primary liver carcer, Carcinoma, hepatocellular, Indocyanine green (ICG), Fluorescence imaging, Hepatectomy
