Two-Tracer technique aims to sharpen Surgeons' aim in breast cancer

NCT ID NCT00314405

Summary

This study tested a two-part method to help surgeons more accurately find the 'sentinel' lymph nodes—the first places breast cancer is likely to spread. It involved 100 patients with breast cancer and compared using a radioactive tracer with a blue dye during surgery. The goal was to find the best way to locate these key nodes to guide treatment decisions and evaluate the cost of the procedure.
