The aim of this study is to prospectively determine the feasibility and safety of near-infrared fluorescence-guided pulmonary segmentectomy after endobronchial indocyanine green (ICG) injection using virtual bronchoscopy. Fifteen patients who underwent pulmonary segmentectomy were prospectively enro...
