Left: Identification of Metastatic Nodal Disease in a Phase 1Dose-Escalation Trial of Intraoperative Sentinel Lymph NodeMapping in Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer Using Near-InfraredImaging. Lymphatic map of sentinel lymph node (SLN) stationsidentified via near-infrared (NIR) image guidance: a total of 26NIR1 SLNs were identified in 15 patients. The location of theidentified SLNs in relation to the site of the primary tumor(and injection site) is demonstrated. RUL, Right upper lobe;LUL, left upper lobe; RML, right middle lobe; LLL, left lowerlobe; RLL, right lower lobe; L, left; R, right.

Center: Spiral Ventricular Septation. Follow-up cardiac com-puted tomographic imaging with 3-dimensional volume render-ing 14 years after the insertion of a straight prosthetic patchattached proximally between the ventricular inlets and distally

between the ventricular outlets. Left, Right anterior obliqueview; center, anteroposterior view; right, left anterior obliqueview. The septum between the newly separated left and rightsides of the initial dominant left ventricle, shown in sky blue,was unable to expand yet has an obvious spiral configuration,as does the remainder of the new septum, which is growable my-ocardium, as can be inferred from the location of the 3 calcifiedpledgets (3 arrowheads in left), which were used to hold 3 trans-apical stitches.
