Received Date: Sep 02, 2024 / Published Date: Sep 30, 2024
Abstract
Lymph node staging plays a crucial role in determining the prognosis and therapeutic approach for cancer patients. Accurate staging of lymph nodes during surgery provides essential information regarding tumor spread, which is vital for treatment planning and assessing the risk of recurrence. Over recent years, significant advancements in lymph node staging techniques have improved the precision and reliability of this process. This article reviews recent developments in lymph node staging methods during cancer surgery, including the use of advanced imaging, intraoperative techniques, and molecular technologies. These innovations aim to provide real-time, accurate data to surgeons, helping optimize decision-making, guide treatment plans, and ultimately improve patient outcomes.
