Brief Summary
This study has been designed to validate a non-radioactive method to identify the sentinel lymph node using a superparamagnetic iron-oxide (SPIO) tracer respect to the traditional isotopic method. Both methods are used in every included patient and each patient is its own control.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
SN detection
Detection of potential sentinel nodes using both methods (isotopic and ferromagnetic tracers). Máximum register of isotopic and ferromagnetic measurement will be the main criteria.
During surgery
Secondary Outcomes (1)
SN agreement
During surgery
Eligibility Criteria
Patients with cutaneous malignant melanoma with indication for sentinel lymph node biopsy in staging.
You may qualify if:
- Adult patients (\>18 years of age),
- with diagnosis of cutaneous melanoma and
- in which SLNB is indicated as a staging method, and
- with cN0 result after clinical-echographic-cytohistological evaluation.
You may not qualify if:
- Previous treatment with systemic therapy.
- Recent previous surgery (\<3 months) in the area susceptible of lymphatic drainage from the melanoma.
- Intolerance or hypersensitivity to iron or dextran compounds.
- Impossibility of use of radioisotope.
- Existence of pathology related to elevation of organic iron (hemosiderosis, hemochromatosis, iron deficiency anemia of metabolic or circulatory origin).
- Implantation of pacemakers or partially or totally metallic thoracic implants.
- Treatment with iron chelators (deferasirox, deferoxamine, ...).
