Value of indocyanine green and laparoscopic near-infrared technology in the surgical management of endometriosis: What is the evidence?

: Sieghenthaler et al1 published on the role of indocyanine green and near-infrared-vision (NIR-ICG) in the management of endometriosis, investigating not only the diagnostic value of NIR-ICG, but also the parameters that alter its detection-rate. The knowledge about the factors that negatively influence the detection-rate of NIR-ICG will certainly help future research.
