The Usefulness of SPECT/CT in Sentinel Node Mapping of Early Stage Breast Cancer Patients Showing Negative or Equivocal Findings on Planar Scintigraphy

Objective(s): This study sought to determine the diagnostic yield of SPECT/CTin localizing axillary sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) in early breast cancer patientswhere planar scintigraphy (PS) was equivocal or negative.Methods: Prospective analysis of early stage breast cancer patients with nonpalpable...
