Summary
This phase I finds out the possible benefits and/or side effects of using magnetic tracer
FerroTrace and the fluorescent dye indocyanine green to identify the lymph nodes that cancer
is most likely to have spread to in patients with gastric cancer that are undergoing
gastrectomy. Using FerroTrace in combination with the indocyanine green dye may help
researchers better detect the disease.
