Sensitivity and specificity of sentinel lymph node biopsy in patients with oral squamous cell carcinomas using indocyanine green fluorescence imaging

In this study, reliability of sentinel lymph node biopsy after ICG imaging could not be verified, as there were false-negative results in 50% of the cases. Therefore, SND can still be recommended as for patients with cT1 or cT2 OSCC, and a N0 neck status.
