Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: Blue - PINPOINT

The cervix will be injected 4 times with a 1ml solution of 1% Isosulfan blue followed by injection 4 times of 1 ml of 1.25 mg/ml solution of ICG. LN mapping with Blue dye will be performed until the investigator identifies all blue nodes or determines that blue nodes cannot be identified. Once complete, the Investigator will begin mapping with PINPOINT until all 'ICG' nodes are identified or the investigator determines that 'ICG' nodes cannot be identified. Once mapping with both Blue dye and PINPOINT have been completed and documented, LNs identified with Blue dye or PINPOINT will be excised.
