Prediction of high nodal burden with ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging in clinically node-negative breast cancer patients

Prediction of high nodal burden with ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging in clinically node-negative breast cancer patients

Abstract Background Although the role of axillary imaging has been redirected for predicting high nodal burden rather than predicting nodal metastases since ACOSOG Z1011 trial, it remains unclear whether and how axillary lymph node (ALN) characteristics predicts high nodal burden. Our study was aime...
