In the last decade, methods for the precise localization of sentinel lymph node (SLN) have drawn tremendous attention by oncology surgeons and researchers in the field of medical diagnosis. The accurate identification and characterization of lymph nodes by imaging has important therapeutic and prognostic significance in patients with newly diagnosed cancers. The SLN is the first lymph node that receives lymphatic drainage from the site of a primary tumor. Two biocompatible dendronized phosphonates, one bearing a Patent Blue (PB VF) dye at its periphery, where synthesized. Indeed, such a blue dye is currently injected to label the lymph node system for its per-operative detection. Therefore, developing chemistry of Patent Blue VF to optimize early diagnosis is of great current interest.
