the near-infrared dye marking solution of indocyanine green (ICG) with diluted human albumin was safe, effective, and easy to perform. The ICG solution has the potential to facilitate the accurate localization and resection of pulmonary nodules during VATS surgery, avoiding the risk of marker displacement/migration.
