Injection Methods in Finding the Sentinel Lymph Node During Lymphatic Mapping and Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy in Patients With Invasive Breast Cancer
Non-randomizedSingle-groupOpen-labelDiagnostic
Summary
RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as lymphoscintigraphy using an injection under the nipple or near the tumor, may help doctors find out how far the disease has spread. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying two different injection methods to compare how well they find the sentinel lymph node during lymphatic mapping and sentinel lymph node biopsy in patients with invasive breast cancer.
