Radioactive seed localizationBreast conserving surgeryThe purpose of the MICRA trial is to omit surgery in breast cancer patients that reach pCR after NST by predicting the presence of pCR solely on biopsies.doi
Radioactive Seed Localization Radioactive I-125 seeds were initially used for interstitial radiation treatment for prostate cancer. These I-125 seeds emit low-dose radiation (0.08–0.4 mCi) that can be detected with a gamma probe through the skin at the time of surgery.90–92 This dose of ra...
Permanent radioactive iodine-125 seed implantation (RISI), known as radioactive seed implantation, is a minimally invasive internal radiation technique. Th
The indications for Iodine-125 seed implantation were as follows: ① patients who were not suitable for surgery or interventional arterial embolization after undergoing a multidisciplinary consultation in the Department of Oncology and Intervention; ② patients who were poor and cannot tolerate surgery or...
surgery. Seeds have been deployed by a variety of techniques such as manually suturing stranded seeds,xivmanually delivering loose seeds via a Mick® applicator, thoracoscopic placement of vicryl mesh imbedded with125Iodine radioactive seeds, and seed placement in the wedge resection margin using ...
Abstract P3-20-06: Magseed/magtrace-guided surgery in breast cancer- an institutional perspective Background/Purpose: Superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO)-based techniques like Magseed and Magtrace offer alternatives for breast lesion and sentinel lymph node (SNL) localization. Magseeds placed under ...
NEW YORK鈥擜n emerging breast cancer treatment that involves insertion of a radioactive seed into the breast is more accurate than wire localization and easier on patients and physicians, according to results from a multicenter trial."This is a major advancement over available wire-based methods ...

radioactive seed localizationPreoperative localization is important to optimize the surgical treatment of breast lesions, especially in nonpalpable lesions. Radioactive seed localization (RSL) using iodine-125 is a relatively new approach. To provide accurate guidance to surgery, it is important that ...
