Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy Findings in Patients With Breast Cancer

Subjects will receive a single intradermal injection of Lymphoseek followed by SPECT imaging conducted in two phases: initial sequential planar imaging at 30 to 60 second intervals for the first 60 minutes and repeated at 90 minutes and 120 minutes, as indicated, for identification of the SLN followed by SPECT/CT for higher resolution imaging in transaxial, coronal, and sagittal planes. Subjects will then proceed to surgery for lymphatic mapping. Lymphoseek positivity will be based upon radioactivity counts derived from the application of the handheld gamma probe ex vivo. Tumor resection or mastectomy will be performed according to standard procedures.
