Are There Any Risks or Limitations Associated with ICG?
While ICG is generally considered safe, there are some risks and limitations to be aware of. Adverse reactions, though rare, can include allergic reactions and anaphylaxis. Additionally, the penetration depth of its fluorescence is limited, which can be a drawback in imaging deeper tissues. Furthermore, ICG is metabolized by the liver, so caution is advised in patients with impaired liver function.
