Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This prospective, single-arm exploratory study evaluates the feasibility and safety of a novel ICG-Cisplatin self-assembled nanoprobe (NIR-II NanoM) for fluorescence-guided surgery in patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC). Participants will receive a transarterial injection of the nanoprobe mixed with lipiodol prior to surgery. During the subsequent laparoscopic anatomic hepatectomy, surgeons will utilize a Near-Infrared II (NIR-II) imaging system to visualize tumor boundaries and liver segments for precise resection.
