Brief Summary
This study is a prospective, single arm, multi-centre study to evaluate the intra-operative use of the LightPath® Imaging System for the assessment of tumour margin status compared to hospital standard of care histopathology in wide local excision (WLE) for breast cancer The intraoperative 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) LightPath® Images will be used to inform the surgeons about detectable residual cancer, in an attempt to achieve better guided cancer surgery and complete tumour excision with clear WLE resection margins. Study sites will use the local criteria considered standard of care to guide decisions to act on positive margins. In the LightPath® arm the resection margin status of the WLE specimen, cavity shavings (if any) and the metastatic status of axillary (sentinel) lymph nodes as measured with the LightPath® Imaging System will be compared with histopathology results.
