Near Infrared Fluorescence Cholangiography (NIRF-C) During Cholecystectomy Sub-Study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate an imaging system using Indocyanine Green (ICG) to
assist in real-time identification of anatomy during cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal)
in patients with acute cholecystitis and cholangitis. We propose to define the effectiveness
of NIRF-C in identifying the cystic duct junction during cholecystectomy.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Age 18-89

- Planned laparoscopic cholecystectomy

Exclusion Criteria:

- Inability to provide informed consent

- Pregnant

- Allergy to ICG, iodine, and/or shellfish

- Lactating
