Optimization of breast cancer excision by intraoperative ultrasound and marking needle - technique description and feasibility
2015
Background
We present a surgical technique and the preliminary results of breast cancer excision after insertion of a specially constructed marking needle into the tumor, controlled by intraoperative ultrasound.
Resection margins were projected in six directions by ultrasound measurements, determined in relation to the needle, and resection was done in accordance with those measurements. The main objective was to obtain resection margins similar (equal) to those projected by intraoperative ultrasound (10 mm).
