Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Positive ICG fluorescence lymph nodes | Approximately 30-90 days after surgery | Total number of lymph nodes removed after surgery that are positive for ICG fluorescence |
| Disease positive lymph nodes | Approximately 30-90 days after surgery | Number of ICG positive lymph nodes that are also positive for disease |
| Number of lymph nodes removed for each lymphatic station of gastrectomy | Approximately 30-90 days after surgery | Total number of lymph nodes removed for each lymphatic station of gastrectomy with NIR+ICG vs gastrectomy without NIR+ICG |
