Brief Summary
This study is a prospective, cross-sectional observational single centre study to assess the feasibility of intra-operative Cerenkov Luminescence Imaging (CLI) of breast cancer wide local excision (WLE) specimens and dissected lymph nodes. The samples will be imaged using the LightPathTM Imaging System. The LightPathTM Imaging System which consists of a light-tight box on which are mounted an ultra-sensitive lens and radiation-shielded camera. This study will measure the correlation between margin status of the WLE specimen and the metastatic status of dissected lymph nodes as determined by the LightPathTM Imaging System and by histopathology. This is a pilot study to assess feasibility before proceeding to a pivotal study to evaluate the benefits of the LightPathTM Imaging System in clinical practice.
