Summary

This study aims to create a detailed map of the small blood vessels in the chest wall that surgeons use during partial breast reconstruction after cancer. By measuring their location using fixed bone and tissue landmarks, the researchers hope to make future surgeries more precise and less invasive. The study will involve 20 women undergoing elective breast surgery and will last about 6 months.
