Summary

The objective of this Phase II study is to assess the diagnostic accuracy of sentinel lymph node (SLN) identification in patients with breast cancer using near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence optical imaging.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

NIR Imaging with FLARE and Mini-FLARE Imaging System

A custom-designed imaging platform that utilizes NIR fluorescence optics will be employed to identify the injected dye and its path through the lymphatic track, and its eventual highlighting of the SLN. Both color images and NIR images will be merged to give the operating surgeon a clear picture of the ICG track superimposed over anatomical landmarks. This technique will identify the SLN and provide an accurate video image of its location.
