Preferred Label : Indocyanine Green;
NCIt synonyms : ICG;
NCIt definition : A nontoxic, fluorescent, tricarbocyanine dye with a peak spectral absorption at 790
nm, with application in determining cardiac output, hepatic function, liver blood
flow, as well as ophthalmic angiography. Upon administration, indocyanine green (ICG)
rapidly binds to its principle carrier, plasma protein, and is thereby confined to
the vascular space. This agent, with a half-life of 150 to 180 seconds, is removed
exclusively by the liver from circulation to bile juice. Furthermore, due to poor
uptake, ICG is not suitable for angiography or functional output analysis of kidney,
lung, cerebro-spinal, or peripheral tissues.;
