Exploring the Use of Indocyanine Green ICG in Colorectal Surgery - Steven D Wexner

Steven D. Wexner explores the use of Indocyanine Green (ICG) in colorectal surgery, highlighting its benefits in enhancing surgical outcomes. ICG, a fluorescent dye, is utilized for intraoperative imaging to improve the visualization of blood flow and tissue perfusion. This technique helps in accurately assessing anastomotic perfusion, reducing the risk of complications such as anastomotic leaks. Wexner emphasizes that ICG is a valuable tool for surgeons, aiding in better decision-making during colorectal procedures and potentially leading to improved patient safety and recovery rates.
