Simple Summary Most breast cancers are small and can be treated using breast-conserving
surgery. Since these tumors are non-palpable, they require a localization step that helps the …

Background Breast surgeons have a wide variety of intraoperative techniques available to
help achieve low rates for positive margins of excision, with variable levels of evidence …

Purpose Wire localization has several disadvantages, notably wire migration and difficulty
scheduling the procedure close to surgery. Radioactive seed localization overcomes these …

We summarise here the information to be provided to women and referring physicians about
percutaneous breast biopsy and lesion localisation under imaging guidance. After …

Screening mammography increases detection of non-palpable breast lesions requiring
image-guided localization prior to surgery. Accurate preoperative localization is crucial for …

Background Wire localization is historically the most common method for guiding excision of
non-palpable breast lesions, but there are limitations to the technique. Newer technologies …

Radioactive iodine-125 (I-125) is the most widely used radioactive sealed source for
interstitial permanent brachytherapy (BT). BT has the exceptional ability to deliver extremely …

Background To better understand re-excision practice patterns after breast-conserving
therapy (BCT), we evaluated variation in surgeon-specific re-excision rates and associated …

OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study is to evaluate a nonradioactive inducible magnetic
seed system (Magseed, Endomag) for preoperative localization of nonpalpable breast …

Purpose The goal of breast cancer surgery is to remove all of the cancer with a minimum of
normal tissue, but absence of full 3-dimensional information on the specimen makes this …
