New study aims to improve breast cancer surgery precision
NCT ID NCT07185568
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares three techniques—ultrasound, wire, and magnetic seed—to help surgeons remove non-palpable breast tumors more accurately during breast-conserving surgery. About 1,300 adult women with early-stage breast cancer will be randomly assigned to one of the three methods. The goal is to see which technique results in fewer positive margins (cancer cells at the edge of removed tissue) and reduces the need for repeat surgery.
