Preoperative CT-Guided Near-Infrared Dye Marking for Thoracoscopic Resection of Pulmonary Nodules: A Case Report

Localization of small-sized pulmonary nodules is challenging during video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. Several preoperative strategies have been developed to mark these targets. We describe our localization strategy using a preoperative computed tomography-guided near-infrared dye marking.
