Study Summary

This trial is testing whether a new imaging device and dye can accurately locate sentinel lymph nodes to help diagnose and treat breast cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with early-stage breast cancer (T1 or T2) who need lymph node evaluation and are having surgery at the University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinic. It's not for those pregnant, breastfeeding, allergic to indocyanine green dye, unable to consent, or with previous surgery in the same breast or armpit area.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing a new method for sentinel lymph node biopsy using a dye called indocyanine green (ICG) and an imaging device named Asimov Platform. This will be compared to the standard practice using technetium-99m and possibly blue dye.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include allergic reactions to ICG dye such as rash, hives, difficulty breathing; however these are generally rare. The procedure itself carries typical surgical risks like infection or bleeding.
