improving patient prognosis. However, current clinical lymph node (LN) mapping relies on fragmentary single-modal imaging agents, which suffer from low accuracy in N-staging and lack integration between preoperative and intraoperative visualization.\u003Cbr>Methods: We developed polydopamine-based nanoparticles (PEG-PDA@IR820/Gd(NH2)2) termed PPIG NPs) as a unified multimodal imaging agent for magnetic resonance (MR), optical, near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence, and thermal LN mapping. PPIG NPs were synthesized in three distinct size ranges (50–100 nm, 100–150 nm, 150–200 nm) . Their imaging performance and lymphatic drainage kinetics were evaluated in vivo in a mouse model. Furthermore, the efficacy of PPIG NPs for LN identification was validated in fresh human gastric and colon cancer specimens via subserosal injection.\u003Cbr>Results: The differently sized PPIG NPs exhibited tunable and size-dependent lymphatic drainage and retention. In mice, they enabled integrative pre-operative (MR) and intra-operative (optical/NIR fluorescence/thermal) multimodal mapping of popliteal LNs. In human specimens, PPIG NPs specifically delineated lymphatic vessels and LNs. Guided by this dual-modal (optical/NIR) mapping, lymphadenectomy in human gastric specimens achieved a significantly higher LN yield compared to conventional visual inspection (mean number: 55.4 vs 36.8, p \u003C 0.05) . The approach also facilitated the precise identification of residual lymphatic vessels post-dissection. Conclusion: PPIG NPs provide an integrative pre-and intra-operative multimodal LN mapping platform. This strategy, enabling “seebefore-cut” planning and “trace-while-cutting” navigation, demonstrates superior accuracy for LN and lymphatic vessel identification compared to current fragmentary techniques, showing promising potential for guiding precise lymphadenectomy in gastric cancer.
