Non-Sentinel Lymph Node Status of Patients with T1/T2 Breast Cancer and Micrometastasis in the Sentinel Lymph Node.

open access: yes, 2009
Background: Micrometastatic disease in the sentinel lymph node is still an indication for complete axillary lymph node dissection. To further reduce morbidity in breast cancer patients the omission of complete axillary lymph node dissection in patients ...

Distinct Ezrin Truncations Differentiate Metastases in Sentinel Lymph Nodes from Unaffected Lymph Node Tissues, from Primary Breast Tumors, and from Healthy Glandular Breast Tissues

open access: yesTranslational Oncology, 2018
BACKGROUND: Lymph node metastasis status is a prognostic factor for further lymph node involvement and for patient survival in breast cancer patients. Frozen section analysis of lymph nodes is a reliable method for detection of macro-metastases. However,

Evaluation of pelvic lymph nodes in patients with prostate cancer: the role of Diffusion Weighted MR Imaging (DW-MRI)

open access: yes, 2012
PURPOSE: To evaluate the role of MRI Diffusion-Weighted Imaging (DWI) to detect pelvic lymph node metastases in patients with prostate cancer (PC) candidate to radical prostatectomy and extended pelvic lymph node dissection.

Outcomes for Patients With Micro‐Invasive or Small HER2+ Breast Cancer in Northern Sydney Local Health District

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Clinical Oncology, EarlyView.
This retrospective study of patients with small, node‐negative HER2+ breast cancer found favorable 5‐year invasive disease‐free survival rates—93% for pT1mic/a disease and 100% for pT1b disease. Trastuzumab was administered to 66% of patients and was associated with larger tumor size and higher histologic grade.

Imaging through a scanner, darkly: spectral imaging for sentinel lymph node biopsies

open access: yes, 2012
Breast cancer is the single most prevalent form of cancer in the UK today, accounting for around 16% of all diagnoses, and around 31% of diagnoses in women. The survival rates are good.
