Image-guided preoperative localization of breast lesions is a common procedure. This article describes several commercially available localization options-wire localization, radioactive seed localization, localization with a radio frequency reflector, and magnetic seed localization-and outlines the advantages and disadvantages of each. This information may help radiologists initiate conversations at their facilities with surgeons, pathologists, and hospital administration as they seek to add value and provide patient-centered care.
