Through the use of preoperative axillary ultrasound (AUS), more patients with clinical node‑positive (cNI) breast cancer and limited nodal burden may be eligible for upfront sentinel lymph node biopsy ...

Introduction: BackgroundAccurate preoperative assessment of axillary lymph node (ALN) metastasis is crucial for optimizing axillary management in estrogen receptor (ER)–positive breast cancer.

This Canadian study included 111 women (median age 63 years), most of whom (90%, n=100) had invasive ductal carcinoma. Over the entire cohort, more than half (54%, n=60) underwent mastectomy and 46% ...
