The Utility of Intraoperative Near Infrared Fluorescence (NIR) Imaging with Indocyanine Green (ICG) for the Assessment of Kidney Allograft Perfusion

Figure 1

Intraoperative fluorescence imaging using indocyanine green (ICG). Images taken after completion of vascular anastomosis, and after 1-minute following intravenous ICG administration. (a-b) Homogenous global fluorescence observed in graft kidney. (c-d) ICG fluorescence demonstrated in the vessels alongside homogenous graft fluorescence (open arrow represents renal artery; closed arrow represents renal vein).
