Ultrasonography and ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy can predict a heavy nodal metastatic burden in early-stage breast cancer

Ultrasonography and ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy can predict a heavy nodal metastatic burden in early-stage breast cancer

Purpose This study aimed to predict a heavy nodal burden (≥3 metastatic axillary lymph nodes [LNs]) using axillary ultrasonography (US) and US-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) in patients with early-stage breast cancer.
