Abstract:
The treatment of breast cancer is becoming more individualized and minimally invasive,which makes sentinel lymph node biopsy becoming the standard treatment for axillary in patients with early-stage breast cancer who are negative in clinical axillary lymph nodes.Tracers image sentinel lymph nodes or lymphatic vessels for the successful detection of sentinel lymph node biopsy.Tracers selection is also more diverse,such as nano carbon mixed suspension,methylene blue,radioisotope,indocyanine green,etc.Different tracers and combined applications have their advantages and limitations.As for the selection of tracing methods,many factors need to be weighed.
