TLDR
SN biopsy using indocyanine green can be performed with a high success rate, and the SN status can predict the lymph node status with a a high degree of accuracy, especially in patients with T1 gastric cancer.About:

Sentinel node mapping guided by indocyanine green fluorescence imaging: a new method for sentinel node navigation surgery in gastrointestinal cancer.
TL;DR: Preliminary results show that ICG fluorescence imaging allows easy, highly sensitive and real-time imaging-guided SN mapping in patients with gastric or colorectal cancer and could be a promising tool deserving further clinical exploration.

TL;DR: AUS, EUS, MDCT, conventional MRI, and FDG-PET cannot reliably be used to confirm or exclude the presence of LN metastasis and the performance of highresolution PET/CT fusion and functional MRI techniques still has to be determined.

TL;DR: Patients without clinical involvement of the axilla should undergo sentinel-node biopsy routinely, and may be spared complete axillary dissection when the sentinel node is disease-free, and thereby provide important information about the status of axillary nodes.
