1 Sentinel lymph node mapping for gastric cancer using a dual procedure with dye- and gamma probe-guided techniques  Hideki Hayashi, MD, Takenori Ochiai, MD, FACS, Mikito Mori, MD, Tomoaki Karube, MD, Takao Suzuki, MD, Yoshio Gunji, MD, Seiji Hori, MD, Naotake Akutsu, MD, Hisahiro Matsubara, MD, Hideaki Shimada, MD, FACS  Journal of the American College of Surgeons  Volume 196, Issue 1, Pages (January 2003) DOI: /S (02)

2 Figure 1 Distributions of BNs (circles), HNs (stars), non-SNs (triangles), and metastatic lymph nodes (shaded). SNs that were both stained blue and radioactive were indicated as stars in a circle. (A) Patient 1: SNs detected by blue dye alone were metastasis negative (circle). The one HN that was not stained blue was metastasis positive (closed star). (B, C) Patients 2 and 3: The only HN identified was among BNs, and it was metastasis negative (star in circle) in each patient. One of the BNs that was not radioactive was metastasis positive (closed circle) in each patient. BN, blue node; HN, hot node; SN, sentinel node.
