Official Title: Infrared Fluorescence Guided Surgery for Sentinel Node Identification in Cutaneous Melanoma
Brief Summary: Sentinel node biopsy is a surgical procedure used to find melanoma lymph node metastasis (i.e. groin/axilla) in very early stages. This study aims to add a new technology over the standard procedure - a fluorescent contrast (indocyanine green) using special light (near infra-red) - looking for more precise diagnosis of the presence of the lymph node metastasis.
