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.
