Brief Summary

The overall aim is to demonstrate that the use of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIO) as a tracer in an ultra-low dose (0.1 ml) is non-inferior for sentinel lymph node (SLN) detection in patients with breast cancer compared to the dual technique using Tc99m +/- blue dye, and to evaluate MRI breast artefacts and skin staining over time.
