Combined LOCalizer™ and Intraoperative Ultrasound Localization: First Experience in Localization of Non-palpable Breast Cancer.

Background: Wire-guided localization is the gold-standard for the detection of non-palpable breast lesions, although with acknowledged limitations. The aim of this study was to evaluate the combined use of LOCalizerr™ (Hologic, Santa Carla, CA, USA), and intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS) for localization and surgery of non-palpable breast cancer.

Patients And Methods: Patients with non-palpable breast lesions underwent localization procedure with LOCalizer™ and IOUS.
