Abstract
There is a significant overlap in the genetic, metabolic and epigenetic alterations between human and companion animal cancers, including those of the oral cavity, breast, bladder, skin, lungs and pancreas. In many cancer types, the identification and removal of affected lymph nodes are essential for accurate cancer management, including treatment and prognosis. Historically, lymphadenectomy and subsequent radical resection based on regional anatomy, palpation and lymph node aspirates were considered sufficient; however, modern approaches with sentinel lymph node mapping (SLN) mapping have increased the accuracy of surgical decision-making. Preoperative and intraoperative SLN mapping techniques in veterinary patients parallel those used in human medicine. While many of these techniques are highly successful, the main challenges with current methodologies are their sensitivity and specificity for the presence of cancer, which can be overcome via precision medicine and targeted SLN mapping agents. Given the large population of dogs and cats with cancer, the crossover of knowledge between species can help to deepen our understanding of many of these cancers and can be useful in evaluating new drugs and/or therapies. In this review, we discuss SLN mapping techniques in veterinary medicine and the concept of precision medicine as it relates to targeted SLN mapping imaging agents. The large number of companion animals affected by cancer is an underutilized resource to bridge the translational gap and we aim to provide a reference for the use of dogs and cats as a comparative model for human SLN mapping.

Abstract
Sentinel lymph node (SLN) detection and biopsy is a critical staging component for several cancers. Apart from established methods using dyes or radiolabeled colloids, newer techniques are emerging, like near-infrared fluorescent compounds, targeted molecular radiopharmaceuticals and magnetic nano-tracers. In the overview section of this review, we categorize SLN detection tracers based on their principle of use. We discuss the merits of existing tracers and provide a glimpse of in-development formulations. A subsequent clinical section explores the expanded role of SLN detection in management of various cancers, citing current medical guidelines and the leading conclusions of long-term clinical trials. The concluding section tries to provide a perspective of promising developments and the work required to bring them to clinical fruition.

Abstract
The surgical resection of solid tumours can be enhanced by fluorescence-guided imaging. However, variable tumour uptake and incomplete clearance of fluorescent dyes reduces the accuracy of distinguishing tumour from normal tissue via conventional fluorescence intensity-based imaging. Here we show that, after systemic injection of the near-infrared dye indocyanine green in patients with various types of solid tumour, the fluorescence lifetime (FLT) of tumour tissue is longer than the FLT of non-cancerous tissue. This tumour-specific shift in FLT can be used to distinguish tumours from normal tissue with an accuracy of over 97% across tumour types, and can be visualized at the cellular level using microscopy and in larger specimens through wide-field imaging. Unlike fluorescence intensity, which depends on imaging-system parameters, tissue depth and the amount of dye taken up by tumours, FLT is a photophysical property that is largely independent of these factors. FLT imaging with indocyanine green may improve the accuracy of cancer surgeries.

Abstract
Timely identification and complete removal of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) through surgery is crucial for effective treatment. However, current diagnostic methods that rely on physical abnormalities are not very informative and practical in clinical settings, leading to the late detection of oral cancer. Furthermore, no dependable intraoperative tools available for assessing surgical margins in real-time. Fluorescence imaging allows the visualization of biological processes occurring in the early stages of cancer, and as a result, small tumors can be detected at an early stage. Fluorescence imaging can effectively aid in assessing excised edges during surgery for OSCC as it possesses high sensitivity and spatial resolution. This review focuses on tongue cancer as a representation of OSCC and delves into various fluorescence techniques that can aid in early diagnosis and surgical guidance. The review also discusses the potential clinical applications of these techniques in the future.

Abstract
Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has been widely adopted in the management of early-stage gynaecological cancers such as endometrial, vulvar and cervical cancer. Comprehensive surgical staging is crucial for patients with early-stage ovarian cancer and currently, that includes bilateral pelvic and para-aortic lymph node assessment. SLNB allows the identification, excision and pathological assessment of the first draining lymph nodes, thus negating the need for a full lymphadenectomy. We systematically searched the MEDLINE, Embase and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) databases (from inception to 3 November 2022) in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA). Our search identified 153 articles from which 11 were eligible for inclusion. Patients with clinical stage I-II ovarian cancer undergoing sentinel lymph node biopsy were included. Statistical analysis was performed in RStudio using the meta package, where meta-analysis was performed for the detection. The risk of bias was assessed using the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies C (QUADAS-C) tool. Overall, 11 observational studies met the predetermined criteria and these included 194 women. The meta-analysis showed that the detection rate of sentinel lymph nodes in early-stage ovarian cancer was 94% (95% CI of 86% to 1.00%). Significant heterogeneity was noted among the studies with Q = 47.6, p < 0.0001, I2 = 79% and τ2 = 0.02. Sentinel lymph nodes in early-stage ovarian cancer have a high detection rate and can potentially have applicability in clinical practice. However, considering the small number of participants in the studies, the heterogeneity among them and the low quality of evidence, the results should be interpreted with caution. Larger trials are needed before a change in clinical practice is recommended.

Abstract
For the treatment of patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), the imaging of cervical lymph nodes and the evaluation of metastastic progression are of great significance. In recent years, the development of new non-radioactive lymph node tracers has been an area of intense research. Here, we report the synthesis, good biocompatibility, and in vivo evaluation of a new small molecule near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence probe by the conjugation of Lapatinib to S0456 (LP-S). We show that like Lapatinib, LP-S binds to the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) resulting in high quality fluorescence imaging of metastatic lymph nodes in OSCC mouse models. After local injection of LP-S into the tumor, the lymphatic drainage pathway and lymph nodes can be clearly identified by NIR fluorescence imaging. Further, the LP-S probe shows higher contrast and longer retention in metastatic lymph nodes, allowing them to be differentiated from normal lymph nodes, and affording a new choice for fluorescence-guided surgery. Scheme. Chemical synthesis and application of EGFR targeting probe LP-S for imaging of metastatic lymph nodes (mLNs) in OSCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite significant improvements in preoperative workup and surgical planning, surgeons often rely on their eyes and hands during surgery. Although this can be sufficient in some patients, intraoperative guidance is highly desirable. Near-infrared fluorescence has been advocated as a potential technique to guide surgeons during surgery. METHODS A literature search was conducted to identify relevant articles for fluorescence-guided surgery. The literature search was performed using Medical Subject Headings on PubMed for articles in English until November 2022 and a narrative review undertaken. RESULTS The use of invisible light, enabling real-time imaging, superior penetration depth, and the possibility to use targeted imaging agents, makes this optical imaging technique increasingly popular. Four main indications are described in this review: tissue perfusion, lymph node assessment, anatomy of vital structures, and tumour tissue imaging. Furthermore, this review provides an overview of future opportunities in the field of fluorescence-guided surgery. CONCLUSION Fluorescence-guided surgery has proven to be a widely innovative technique applicable in many fields of surgery. The potential indications for its use are diverse and can be combined. The big challenge for the future will be in bringing experimental fluorophores and conjugates through trials and into clinical practice, as well as validation of computer visualization with large data sets. This will require collaborative surgical groups focusing on utility, efficacy, and outcomes for these techniques.

Abstract
(1) Introduction: Near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) combined with tumour-targeted tracers, such as bevacizumab-800CW, could aid surgical decision-making. This study explored the use of IRDye800CW, conjugated to bevacizumab, with four commercially available NIRF laparoscopes optimised for indocyanine green (ICG). (2) Methods: A (lymph node) phantom was made from a calibration device for NIRF and tissue-mimicking material. Serial dilutions of bevacizumab-800CW were made and ICG functioned as a reference. System settings, working distance, and thickness of tissue-mimicking material were varied to assess visibility of the fluorescence signal and tissue penetration. Tests were performed with four laparoscopes: VISERA ELITE II, Olympus; IMAGE1 S™ 4U Rubina, KARL STORZ; ENDOCAM Logic 4K platform, Richard Wolf; da Vinci Xi, Intuitive Surgical. (3) Results: The lowest visible bevacizumab-800CW concentration ranged between 13-850 nM (8-512 times diluted stock solution) for all laparoscopes, but the tracer was not visible through 0.8 cm of tissue in all systems. In contrast, ICG was still visible at a concentration of 0.4 nM (16,384 times diluted) and through 1.6-2.4 cm of tissue. Visibility and tissue penetration generally improved with a reduced working distance and manually adjusted system settings. (4) Conclusion: Depending on the application, bevacizumab-800CW might be sufficiently visible with current laparoscopes, but optimisation would widen applicability of tumour-targeted IRDye800CW tracers.

Abstract
Lymph node metastasis is an indicator of the invasiveness and aggressiveness of cancer. It is a vital prognostic factor in clinical staging of the disease and therapeutic decision-making. Patients with positive metastatic lymph nodes are likely to develop recurrent disease, distant metastasis, and succumb to death in the coming few years. Lymph node dissection and histological analysis are needed to detect whether regional lymph nodes have been infiltrated by cancer cells and determine the likely outcome of treatment and the patient's chances of survival. However, these procedures are invasive, and tissue biopsies are prone to sampling error. In recent years, advanced molecular imaging with novel imaging probes has provided new technologies that are contributing to comprehensive management of cancer, including non-invasive investigation of lymphatic drainage from tumors, identifying metastatic lymph nodes, and guiding surgeons to operate efficiently in patients with complex lesions. In this review, first, we outline the current status of different molecular imaging modalities applied for lymph node metastasis management. Second, we summarize the multi-functional imaging probes applied with the different imaging modalities as well as applications of cancer lymph node metastasis from preclinical studies to clinical translations. Third, we describe the limitations that must be considered in the field of molecular imaging for improved detection of lymph node metastasis. Finally, we propose future directions for molecular imaging technology that will allow more personalized treatment plans for patients with lymph node metastasis.

Abstract
PURPOSE Resection of the tumor-draining lymph -node (TDLN) represents a standard method to identify metastasis for several malignancies. Interestingly, recent preclinical studies indicate that TDLN resection diminishes the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitor-based cancer immunotherapies. Thus, accurate preclinical identification of TDLNs is pivotal to uncovering the underlying immunological mechanisms. Therefore, we validated preclinically, and clinically available non-invasive in vivo imaging approaches for precise TDLN identification. PROCEDURES For visualization of the lymphatic drainage into the TDLNs by non-invasive in vivo optical imaging, we injected the optical imaging contrast agents Patent Blue V (582.7 g mol-1) and IRDye® 800CW polyethylene glycol (PEG; 25,000-60,000 g mol-1), subcutaneously (s.c.) in close proximity to MC38 adenocarcinomas at the right flank of experimental mice. For determination of the lymphatic drainage and the glucose metabolism in TDLNs by non-invasive in vivo PET/magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI), we injected the positron emission tomography (PET) tracer (2-deoxy-2[18F]fluoro-D-glucose (18F-FDG) [181.1 g mol-1]) in a similar manner. For ex vivo cross-correlation, we isolated TDLNs and contralateral nontumor-draining lymph nodes (NTDLNs) and performed optical imaging, biodistribution, and autoradiography analysis. RESULTS The clinically well-established Patent Blue V was superior for intraoperative macroscopic identification of the TDLNs compared with IRDye® 800CW PEG but was not sensitive enough for non-invasive in vivo detection by optical imaging. Ex vivo Patent Blue V biodistribution analysis clearly identified the right accessory axillary and the proper axillary lymph node (LN) as TDLNs, whereas ex vivo IRDye® 800CW PEG completely failed. In contrast, functional non-invasive in vivo 18F-FDG PET/MRI identified a significantly elevated uptake exclusively within the ipsilateral accessory axillary TDLN of experimental mice and was able to differentiate between the accessory axillary and the proper LN. Ex vivo biodistribution and autoradiography confirmed our in vivo 18F-FDG PET/MRI results. CONCLUSIONS When taken together, our results demonstrate the feasibility of 18F-FDG-PET/MRI as a valid method for non-invasive in vivo, intraoperative, and ex vivo identification of the lymphatic drainage and glucose metabolism within the TDLNs. In addition, using Patent Blue V provides additive value for the macroscopic localization of the lymphatic drainage both visually and by ex vivo optical imaging analysis. Thus, both methods are valuable, easy to implement, and cost-effective for preclinical identification of the TDLN.

Abstract
Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has been used across oncological specialties for prognostication, staging, and identification of occult nodal metastasis. Recent studies demonstrated the potential clinical utility of SLNB in oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OCSCC). Elective neck dissection is the current standard of care in early management of OCSCC with depth of invasion greater than 2-4 mm; however, majority of patients ultimately do not have nodal disease on final pathology. SLNB is an alternative procedure widely adopted in early cancer management in many oncological subspecialities. Several considerations such as depth of invasion, nodal mapping, histopathology methods, operator variability, postoperative complications, and advancement in preoperative and intraoperative imaging technology can guide the appropriate application to SLNB in OCSCC. The aim of this review is to discuss the current evidence for SLNB in the treatment of early stage OCSCC, imaging technologies that support SLNB procedures, and studies that are currently underway.

Abstract
PURPOSE Determine the safety and specificity of a tumor-targeted radiotracer (89Zr-pan) in combination with 18F-FDG PET/CT to improve diagnostic accuracy in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Adult patients with biopsy-proven HNSCC scheduled for standard-of-care surgery were enrolled in a clinical trial and underwent systemic administration of 89Zirconium-panitumumab and panitumumab-IRDye800 followed by preoperative 89Zr-pan PET/CT and intraoperative fluorescence imaging. The sensitivity, specificity, and AUC were evaluated. RESULTS A total of fourteen patients were enrolled and completed the study. Four patients (28.5%) had areas of high 18F-FDG uptake outside the head and neck region with maximum standardized uptake values (SUVmax) greater than 2.0 that were not detected on 89Zr-pan PET/CT. These four patients with incidental findings underwent further workup and had no evidence of cancer on biopsy or clinical follow-up. Forty-eight lesions (primary tumor, LNs, incidental findings) with SUVmax ranging 2.0-23.6 were visualized on 18F-FDG PET/CT; 34 lesions on 89Zr-pan PET/CT with SUVmax ranging 0.9-10.5. The combined ability of 18F-FDG PET/CT and 89Zr-pan PET/CT to detect HNSCC in the whole body was improved with higher specificity of 96.3% [confidence interval (CI), 89.2%-100%] compared to 18F-FDG PET/CT alone with specificity of 74.1% (CI, 74.1%-90.6%). One possibly related grade 1 adverse event of prolonged QTc (460 ms) was reported but resolved in follow-up. CONCLUSIONS 89Zr-pan PET/CT imaging is safe and may be valuable in discriminating incidental findings identified on 18F-FDG PET/CT from true positive lesions and in localizing metastatic LNs.

Abstract
PURPOSE Accurate identification of nodal status enables adequate neck irradiation for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). However, most conventional techniques are unable to pick up occult metastases, leading to underestimation of tumor extensions. Here we investigate the clinical significance of carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) in human NPC samples, and develop a CAIX-targeted imaging strategy to identify occult lymph node metastases (LNMs) and extranodal extension (ENE) in animal studies. METHODS A total of 211 NPC samples are performed CAIX staining, and clinical outcomes are analyzed. The metastatic murine models are generated by foot pad injection of NPC cells, and a CAIX-targeted imaging agent (CAIX-800) is intravenously administered. We adopt fluorescence molecular tomography and ultrasonography (US)-guided spectroscopic photoacoustic (sPA) imaging to perform in vivo studies. Histological and immunohistochemical characterization are carried out via node-by-node analysis. RESULTS For clinical samples, 90.1% (91/101) primary tumors, 73.3% (66/90) metastases, and 100% (20/20) local recurrences are CAIX positive. In metastases group, 84.7% (61/72) nodal metastases and 22.2% (4/18) organ metastases are CAIX positive. CAIX expression in primary tumors is significantly associated with NPC stage and prognosis. For animal studies, CAIX-800-based fluorescence imaging achieves 81.3% sensitivity and 93.8% specificity in detecting occult LNMs in vivo, with a minimum detectable diameter of 1.7 mm. Coupled with CAIX-800, US-guided sPA imaging could not only detect subcapsular deposits of metastatic cancer cells 2 weeks earlier than conventional techniques, but also successfully track pathological ENE. CONCLUSION CAIX remarkably expresses in human NPCs and stratifies patient prognosis. In preclinical studies, CAIX-800-based imaging successfully identifies occult LNMs and tracks early stage of pathological ENE. This attractive method shows potential in clinic, allowing medical workers to longitudinally monitor nodal status and helping to reduce unnecessary nodal biopsy for patients with NPC. The schematic diagram for the study. CAIX, carbonic anhydrase IX; NPC, nasopharyngeal carcinoma; US, ultrasonography; sPA, spectroscopic photoacoustic.

Abstract
The sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) is a group of lymph nodes initially involved in the metastatic spread of cancer cells. SLN mapping refers to intraoperative localization and biopsy of SLNs with specific tracers to assess lymph node metastases. It is widely used in a variety of tumor surgeries for its high sensitivity and high negative predictive value. In the evaluation of the status of lymph node metastases in gynecological malignancies, it has received increasingly more attention due to its minor invasiveness, few complications, and high diagnosis rate. The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines provide an excellent introduction to the indications and methods of SLN techniques in vulvar, cervical, and endometrial cancers, but they provide little explanation about some specific issues. In this review, we summarize different dyes and injection methods and discuss the indications of application and the clinical trials of SLN mapping in gynecological malignant tumors, aiming to provide a reference for the rational application of sentinel techniques in gynecology malignant tumors before relevant guidelines are updated.

Abstract
Cancer surgery requires removing the tumor tissue in necessary and sufficient quantities. Spectral optical imaging in the short-wave infrared (900-1700 nm) could provide an intraoperative guidance to the surgeon based on the absorption of the tissues without contrast agent. Our objective was to ensure the safety of our ENDOSWIR device on human tissues. Histological analysis of fresh human tonsils exposed to the SWIR light or not was compared and showed no histological differences. This demonstrates the safety of using the SWIR device on human tissues and allows us to initiate a clinical study for the resection of tumors intraoperatively.
