Overview

This study is exploring whether it's possible to detect paragangliomas (a rare type of tumor) during minimally invasive surgery by using a technique called near-infrared fluorescence imaging, guided by a substance called indocyanine green (ICG). The goal is to see if this method can help surgeons identify and treat paragangliomas more accurately and during minimally invasive procedures.
