The magnetic technique for sentinel node biopsy provides a radioisotope-free alternative for
staging breast cancer. It requires refinement to reduce “residual iron content” at injection …

The magnetic technique for sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has been evaluated in
several clinical trials. An in vivo porcine model was developed to optimise the magnetic …

The standard for the treatment of early non-palpable breast cancers is wide local excision
directed by wire-guided localization and sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB). This has …

Background The combined technique is the preferred technique for sentinel lymph node
biopsy (SLNB) but blue dye and radioisotope both have significant drawbacks including …

Introduction Breast cancer staging with sentinel lymph node biopsy relies on the use of
radioisotopes, which limits the availability of the procedure worldwide. The use of a …

Background: Primary tumour biology and axillary lymph node status are crucial prognostic
factors in breast cancer treatment. The LowMag trial introduced a magnetic sentinel lymph …

The newly developed radioisotope-free technique based on magnetic nanoparticle
detection using a magnetic probe is a promising method for sentinel lymph node biopsy. In …

Background Primary tumour biology and axillary lymph node status are key prognostic
factors in breast cancer treatment. The LowMag trial introduced a magnetic sentinel lymph …

Background Localisation techniques for nonpalpable breast cancer lesions and sentinel
lymph node biopsy (SLNB) are associated with several drawbacks. A complete magnetic …

Background Some hospitals lack facilities for radioisotopes in sentinel node biopsy. A novel
method is used with a superparamagnetic tracer and a magnetometer instead of a …
