## Abstract The internal mammary lymph node chain has been studied in patients with breast cancer by radioiosotope imaging. The technique enabled the study of lymph node function in an area inaccessible to clinical examination or lymphography. Thirty-four patients with breast cancer have been stud
## Lymph node imprint cytology for the rapid assessment of axillary node metastases in breast cancer Lymph node imprint cytology was performed on 86 nodes from 13 consecutive patients with breast cancer undergoing simple mastectomy with axillary node sampling, and a prospective comparison with par
## Abstract ## Purpose To determine whether equivalent crossβrelaxation rate (ECR) imaging (ECRI) is a feasible method for optimization of axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) and thereby improve qualityβofβlife (QOL). ## Materials and Methods A total of 50 breast cancer patients underwent ECRI
Background and Objectives: As infraclavicular lymph node metastases is one of the parameters of stage III-C, the diagnostic techniques aiming to identify the metastases of this region have gained importance recently. In this study, we investigated the presence of axillary and infraclavicular lymph n
