The increasing use of early diagnosis and primary systemic therapy for breast disease has led to a rise in surgeries for non-palpable breast lesions. Image-guided preoperative localization procedures are often required for breast-conserving surgery to guide the surgeon.
The increasingly early diagnosis of breast disease and the more widespread use of primary systemic therapy leads to an increasing number of surgeries for non-palpable breast lesions (NPL) in clinical practice.Breast-conserving surgery often requires the use of an image-guided preoperative localization proce-dure, in which a device is placed within the lesion to be removed to guide the surgeon during surgery. These are patients with small, non-palpable tumors detected in the population screening mammogram, cases with significant reduction of the lesion after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and sometimes it is even necessary to mark axillary lymphadenopathies prior to systemic treatment.
