The study aimed to assess the impact of a standardized protocol on interpretation consistency of indocyanine green fluorescence angiography (ICGFA) in colorectal surgery. Experienced and junior surgeons completed a questionnaire and interpreted nine ICGFA videos. Results showed good transection level concordance across all videos and expertise levels. However, poor agreement was observed with the standardized protocol for overlay presentation and monochrome display. The study suggests that standardizing ICGFA acquisition and display may diminish interpretation consistency and highlights the need for dedicated protocols for computational development of ICGFA videos.
