Summary

This study looks at whether a special ultrasound technique can help doctors decide which armpit lymph nodes need to be removed in breast cancer patients who have already had chemotherapy. About 97 women with breast cancer that spread to their armpit lymph nodes will take part. The goal is to see if this ultrasound method can accurately find any remaining cancer, so that only the necessary surgery is done.
