Lymph Node Mapping Using Indocyanine Green Solution in Diagnosing Patients With Malignant Melanoma

Not Recruiting

Trial ID: NCT01898403

Purpose

This clinical trial compares and contrasts lymph node mapping using indocyanine green (IC-GREEN), isosulfan blue (ISB), and TSC and Lymphoscintigraphy with 99-technetium (99Tc) sulfur colloid (TSC). Study participants with malignant melanoma will undergo all 3 evaluations to assess the extent of the spread of the melanoma.

Official Title

Testing the Efficacy of Indocyanine Green Imaging (ICG-SPY) in the Identification of Sentinel Lymph Nodes (SLN) in Patients With Malignant Melanoma
