Excerpt

Patients who are potential candidates for breast conservation surgery following neoadjuvant chemotherapy have their tumours marked with a maker clip to guide surgery. Some of the breast cancers are associated with microcalcification. So far we have not seen any publication showing the potential use of tumour-associated microcalcification, which could be used as marker of the tumour bed instead of a marker clip. We present prospective case series where microcalcification associated with tumour had been used to guide surgery …
