This observational study will examine how closely first-window indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence corresponds to the extent of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma identified by tissue biopsy. ICG is a fluorescent dye given into a vein during surgery. Patients receive ICG as part of their clinical care, independently of whether they participate in this study. The study plans to enroll 25 adults undergoing surgery for confirmed or strongly suspected cancer. Researchers will record near-infrared images obtained during clinical ICG use, compare them with tissue pathology, and measure the strength, timing, and duration of fluorescence. The research analysis will not guide clinical or surgical decisions. Participants will be followed through 24 hours after surgery.
