Summary

The project objective is to determine whether the Breast Cancer Locator (BCL) can safely and effectively localize breast cancers in patients treated at locations distant from the site of BCL manufacture. This information will be transmitted to CairnSurgical, Inc. where the BCL will be fabricated, tested for quality assurance, sterilized and shipped to the patient's surgeon. The surgeon will then utilize the BCL at the time of resection of the palpable breast cancer.

Conditions

  • Palpable Breast Cancer

Interventions

DEVICE

Breast Cancer Locator (BCL)

This locator will be constructed pre-operatively, sterilized and provided to the surgeon at the time of procedure. The outline of the breast cancer on the breast surface at the point where the cancer is closest to the skin is built into the locator, so that the surgeon can simply apply the locator to the patient's breast and trace the tumor outline on the skin.
