The treatment of breast cancer during pregnancy requires careful consideration of consequences for both maternal and fetal health. In non-pregnant patients, the use of radioactive iodine-125 (125I)-seeds is standard practice for localising non-palpable breast tumors before breast-conserving surgery. However, the use of 125I-seeds in pregnant patients has been avoided due to concerns about fetal radiation exposure.

Aim: This study aimed to detail our experience of using SCOUT® radar reflector for lesion localisation in the breast and axilla.
Materials And Methods: This is a prospective cohort study describing our clinical experience with the first 500 patients who received SCOUT® to localise lesions in the breast and axilla (from 23 July 2020 to 4 April 2022). Study measures include patient demographics, lesion location, diagnostic pathways (screening or symptomatic), imaging, and surgical and pathology outcomes.

One of the most prevalent congenital defects in boys is undescended testes. Ultrasound is commonly employed to locate the testis in cases of impalpable testes, which frequently yields false-negative results. Laparoscopy has gained widespread acceptance recently for managing impalpable testes.

Objectives: In recent years, with the advancement of sublobar resection, A safe, painless method for locating peripheral pulmonary nodules is required. Previously, an alternative method of arterial watershed localization was been introduced to remedy the shortcomings of preoperative CT-guided localization or other methods for locating pulmonary nodules, but its technical limitations were discovered during clinical application. Therefore, we innovated a technique to localize non-subpleural nodules using basin analysis of the target vein and validated its feasibility and safety.

Background: Wire-guided localization (WGL) for non-palpable breast cancer lesions has drawbacks like wire migration, localization difficulties, and logistical challenges. Wireless methods, such as reflector-guided localization (RGL), address these issues and are compatible with breast MRI. This study evaluates the organizational and cost impacts of RGL compared to WGL.
