Abstract
Iodine-125 (I-125) labelled radioactive seeds were the first published wireless pre-operative image-guided breast localization technique. Radioseeds offer benefit to radiologists as a relatively intuitive procedure with precise mammographic or sonographic-guided localization and improved patient experience. Localization and surgical dates can be uncoupled, which facilitates efficient scheduling for radiologists and surgeons. Surgeons can better tailor their surgery with intra-operative localization using a special probe to detect the emitted gamma energy. Due to radioactivity, implementation of a radioseed program requires compliance with the National Regulatory Commission and therefore multidisciplinary involvement. Seeds have a high placement success rate, and comparable surgical success and re-excision rate to wires.
期刊介绍：
Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI is directed to all physicians involved in the performance and interpretation of ultrasound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging procedures. It is a timely source for the publication of new concepts and research findings directly applicable to day-to-day clinical practice. The articles describe the performance of various procedures together with the authors'' approach to problems of interpretation.
