What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Introduction: This protocol outlines a randomized phase IV clinical trial designed to compare the efficacy of two different doses of indocyanine green (ICG) used in near-infrared fluorescent cholangiography during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC)-the current gold standard treatment for symptomatic cholelithiasis. Despite its effectiveness, LC is still associated with significant risks, particularly bile duct injury (BDI), a severe complication that this study aims to mitigate. Phase: Phase IV Study design: Multicenter, randomized, open-label, parallel-group clinical trial (modified intention-to-treat). Objectives: Primary objective: * To analyze differences between treatment groups (standard dose 2.5 mg \>3h preoperative vs reduced dose 0.25 mg immediate preoperative 15-30 min) during laparoscopic cholecystectomy in: * Visualization of extrahepatic biliary structures * Degree of vi
