Summary
This study aims to first apply near-infrared fluorescence imaging technology in thoracic
surgery with indocyanine green in China. To evaluate the feasibility usage of the
investigators' fluorescence imaging systems and the safety applications in intraoperative
sentinel lymph node mapping of lung and esophageal cancer, lung nodule imaging, lung segment
resection boundary determination, esophagus - tubular anastomosis, thoracic duct imaging and
chylothorax repairing thoracic surgery. Aim to achieve precise boundaries definition during
thoracic surgery and realize accurate, minimally invasive thoracic surgery with fluorescence
imaging technology.
