Personalized oncological colorectal resection and lymphadenectomy can be performed with the aid of ICG technology. Laparoscopic subserosal ICG injection may be the preferred route, as it minimize extravasation and aids to identify drainage lymph nodes without prolonging minimally invasive surgery. Further studies are required to determine the best route, strength, and timing of ICG injection and concordance with pathology to tailor the extent of resection for individual patients.
