Subconjunctival indocyanine green identifies lymphatic vessels.
vitreous cavity. Strong glial fibrillary acidic protein positivity confirms the diagnosis. Thickening of the vessel walls, perivascular pigment, intralesional cysts, and calcareous deposits (calcospherites) are also detectable. Massive retinal gliosis is characteristically encountered in phthisical eyes after trauma, surgery, or inflammation and in other conditions such as retinopathy of premat...
متن کاملQuantitative imaging of lymphatic function with liposomal indocyanine green.
Lymphatic vessels play a major role in cancer progression and in postsurgical lymphedema, and several new therapeutic approaches targeting lymphatics are currently being developed. Thus, there is a critical need for quantitative imaging methods to measure lymphatic flow. Indocyanine green (ICG) has been used for optical imaging of the lymphatic system, but it is unstable in solution and may rap...
متن کاملIndocyanine Green: Observations
Indocyanine green 1 (ICG) is a tricarbocyanine dye (Figure 1) which has been used in the indicator dilution technique for measuring cardiac output (1, 2). Animal studies (3) and preliminary observations of human subjects (4, 5) have suggested that this dye may have characteristics that could make its uptake, storage, and excretion by the liver helpful indices of hepatic function. The present in...

T he concept of retinal vital staining is not new. There has however been renewed interest in the subject since indocyanine green (ICG) was introduced as a vital stain to highlight the internal limiting membrane (ILM) during macular surgery. ICG’s well known role in cardiac and choroidal angiography exploits its properties as a fluorophore, but its role as a macular vital stain relies on its pr...
متن کاملIndocyanine green angiography.
A brief survey of the recent ophthalmic literature underscores a resurgence of interest in indocyanine green angiography (ICGA). This imaging method may be particularly useful for the ophthalmologist, as it provides at least a theoretical advantage for improved imaging of the choroidal circulation when compared with fluorescein angiography. New temporal and spatial technological advances (that ...
