This record contains raw data related to article “Percutaneous Computed Tomography (CT)-Guided Localization with Indocyanine Green for the Thoracoscopic Resection of Small Pulmonary Nodules" Abstract Background: The identification of small lung nodules is challenging during mini-invasive thoracic surgery. Unable to palpate them directly, surgeons have developed several methods to preoperatively localize pulmonary nodules, including the computed tomography-guided positioning of coils or metallic landmarks (hook wire) or bronchoscopic marking. Methods: We present a series of patients scheduled for the video-assisted thoracoscopic sublobar resection of small pulmonary nodules, in which we performed preoperative percutaneous computed tomography (CT)-guided nodule localization through the injection of a mixture of indocyanine green and human albumin. Results: A total of 40 patients underwent a preoperative CT-guided injection of indocyanine green followed by VATS resection within 24 h. Patients tolerated the procedure well, no pain medication was administrated, and no complications were observed during the marking procedure. All pulmonary nodules were easily detected and successfully resected. Conclusion: the near-infrared dye marking solution of indocyanine green (ICG) with diluted human albumin was safe, effective, and easy to perform. The ICG solution has the potential to facilitate the accurate localization and resection of pulmonary nodules during VATS surgery, avoiding the risk of marker displacement/migration.本数据集包含与论文《经皮计算机断层扫描（CT）引导下吲哚菁绿定位用于胸腔镜下小肺结节切除术》相关的原始数据。 摘要 背景：微创胸外科手术中，小肺结节的识别颇具挑战。由于无法直接触诊，外科医生已开发出多种术前定位肺结节的方法，包括计算机断层扫描引导下放置线圈或金属标记物（钩丝），或支气管镜标记法。 方法：我们纳入了一系列计划接受电视辅助胸腔镜下肺亚叶切除术的小肺结节患者，通过注射吲哚菁绿（Indocyanine Green，ICG）与人血白蛋白的混合液，完成术前经皮计算机断层扫描（CT）引导下的结节定位。 结果：共计40例患者接受了术前CT引导下的吲哚菁绿注射，并在24小时内完成了电视辅助胸腔镜手术（Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery，VATS）切除。患者对该操作耐受性良好，未使用止痛药物，且标记操作过程中未观察到任何并发症。所有肺结节均易于识别并成功切除。 结论：采用稀释人血白蛋白配制的吲哚菁绿（ICG）近红外染料标记液安全有效、操作简便。该ICG溶液有望在电视辅助胸腔镜手术中助力肺结节的精准定位与切除，规避标记物移位/迁移的风险。
