Goyang-siAges 18 years+ - NCT06831149RecruitingPhase 2
Spy imaging to reduce fistulas after throat reconstruction
This study is testing a special imaging tool (SPY system) that helps surgeons see blood flow better during surgery to rebuild the throat. The goal is to reduce the risk of fluid leaks (fistulas) after the operation.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07677839Recruiting
Study using ultrasound to look at normal lymph nodes before breast surgery
This study uses a special type of ultrasound (UHFUS) to take detailed images of your lymph nodes before and during breast cancer surgery. The goal is to better understand normal lymph node anatomy, which may help prevent lymphedema (swelling) after surgery.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT01485575Recruiting
Blue or green dye eye surgery to help remove retinal tissue
This trial studies an eye surgery technique that uses a colored dye (blue or green) to help the surgeon carefully remove a thin inner retinal layer. It may help make the procedure more precise and safer, and the study compares how the dye-assisted method works.
LinzAges 18 years+ - NCT07380867Enrolling by invitation
New marker test for marking colon tumors before surgery
This trial tests a new marker that glows under special light to help doctors see exactly where a colon tumor is during surgery. It may help make the surgery more precise.
Seoul, SeoulAges 19–80 - NCT06583564Enrolling by invitation
ICG dye during surgery for stage III colorectal cancer
This study tests whether using a special dye during surgery helps people with stage III colorectal cancer stay cancer-free longer. The dye, called indocyanine green (ICG), makes tumors and lymph nodes glow under a special camera, helping surgeons remove them more precisely.
Changning, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT03779009Recruiting
Study mapping sentinel lymph nodes to guide colon cancer surgery
This trial looks at a minimally invasive surgery approach for people with colon adenocarcinoma that has not spread to lymph nodes or other organs. The team will use special mapping tests on the sentinel lymph node to better understand the cancer spread and help guide treatment decisions.
GhentAges 18 years+ - NCT06768268Enrolling by invitationPhase 1/Phase 2
Better lymph node imaging for breast cancer
This trial tests whether adding two common fluids (Mannitol and Voluven) before an ICG dye injection can help surgeons better see the lymph nodes that need to be removed during breast cancer surgery. It aims to make sentinel lymph node biopsies more accurate and safer.
Hsinchu CountyAges 20–70 - NCT03953144RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
3D lung surgery planning with a dye to find tumors
This trial tests a new way to plan and guide lung cancer surgery using a special dye that shows the tumor area during the operation. It may help surgeons remove the cancer more accurately while targeting only a small section of lung for certain early-stage patients.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05735964Recruiting
Using dye to guide repair surgery for baby’s esophagus
This trial studies whether a special IV dye (indocyanine green, or ICG) can help surgeons during an operation to fix a baby’s esophagus blockage with an abnormal connection to the windpipe. It may help improve how the repair is done, but eligibility depends on baby’s safety factors for using the dye.
BirminghamAges Up to 1 year - NCT06302985Recruiting
Inhaled dye for lung malformations in children
This trial tests a new way to use a dye called ICG (indocyanine green) that is inhaled like a mist. It may help doctors see and treat congenital lung malformations in children more clearly.

New Compression Device for Leg Lymphedema Treatment
This study tests a newer version of a pneumatic compression device (a machine that gently squeezes your leg to reduce swelling) for lymphedema—persistent swelling in the lower leg or foot. Researchers want to see if the updated compression settings work better to reduce swelling and improve how your leg feels and functions.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04752137RecruitingPhase 2
ICG dye imaging during surgery to check tumor edges
This trial tests whether a special dye (ICG) seen during your surgery can help doctors better identify the edges of a tumor in bone or soft tissue. It may help ensure as much of the tumor is removed as safely as possible.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06161207RecruitingPhase 3
Laparoscopic surgery for stomach cancer using 3D and dye
This trial tests a new way to remove stomach cancer using 3D-4K cameras and a special dye during laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery. It may help surgeons see the cancer better and remove it more precisely.

Comparing two dyes for lymph node mapping in vulvar cancer
This study compares two methods for finding the first lymph node (sentinel node) that may contain cancer in people with vulvar cancer. It uses a dye called indocyanine green alone or with a radioactive tracer (technetium) to see which approach works better for staging the disease.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06085274Recruiting
SHINE: Using a special dye to find lymph nodes after breast cancer chemo
This study tests whether a special dye called indocyanine green (ICG) can help find sentinel lymph nodes during breast cancer surgery after chemotherapy. It may offer a safer and more effective way to check if cancer has spread.
