Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The patients are randomly assigned to one of two groups, receiving combined use of ICG and methylene blue(Combination Group) or methylene blue alone as the lymphatic mapping tracer.Methylene blue will be injected periareolarly or peritumorally 8 minutes before the standard biopsy insicion.In the combination group,ICG would be injected 3 minutes before the surgery.In the combination group, sentinel lymph nodes are identified by ICG fluorescence using a near-infrared camera and blue stained lymph nodes found during this precedure will also be resected, while in blue dye alone group, sentinel lymph nodes are identified as blue nodes along the blue lymphatic vessel.
