The LOCalizer Radiofrequency Identification System: An Effective New Technology for Localizing Non-Palpable Breast Lesions for Surgery.

Breast screening has decreased morbidity and mortality due to detection of early, non-palpable breast cancers. One of the challenges of performing breast-conserving surgery on non-palpable breast tumours is accurate localization of the cancer. We aimed to perform a feasibility study to examine the outcomes associated with the introduction of a novel radiofrequency identification system (RFID) called LOCalizer as an alternative to traditional wire-guided localization.
