Indocyanine green fluorescence-guided sentinel lymph node biopsy in dermato-oncology.

Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) for cutaneous malignancies usually carried out with radioactive nanocolloids (Tc-99m). The SLNE is controversially discussed internationally. This is especially given to the high false-negative rate up to 44 %. An alternative could be the fluorescent dye indocyanine green (ICG).
