Summary

This trial is testing a special camera system with a glowing dye to help surgeons better identify lymph nodes in women with breast cancer. The goal is to reduce the risk of arm swelling after surgery by clearly seeing and avoiding important lymphatic channels.

Eligible Conditions
  • Breast Cancer
  • Lymphedema
  • Surgery

Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Axillary SurgeryExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Breast cancer patients undergoing SLN biopsy (n=0-20) or axillary lymph node dissection (n=0-15) will be enrolled to undergo standard of care axillary reverse mapping (ARM) using isosulfan blue dye. Participants will also receive ICG injection with visualization through the OnLume Imaging System to allow comparison of blue dye versus ICG lymphatic identification.
