Non-invasive Nodal Staging in Breast Cancer With Magnetic Resonance Imaging Lymphography Using Gadofosveset
Interventional
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Diagnostic
The diagnostic performance (sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value (NPV) and positive predictive value (PPV)) of axillary MRL in predicting the involvement of metastases
The main study parameter will be the diagnostic performace (sensitivity, specificity, NPV and PPV) of the axillary MRL in predicting the involvement of metastases in the investigated lymph nodes. Each node will be scored on MRL as 0= benign, 1=malign. These results will be compared with the histopathological results of the SNLB procedure of ALND procedure on an node by node basis. So the diagnostic performace can be calculated.
Participants will be followed from the moment of first out-hospital clinic vistit untill final breast surgery, an expected average of 4 weeks.
