‘Rolling out radioguided occult lesion localisation for breast tumours’: moving from ROLL to ROLLIS
We read with interest the editorial by Chung discussing advantages of radio-guided occult lesion localisation (ROLL) over other commonly used pre-operative localisation techniques for breast tumours. While the results from our audited introduction of ROLL support the conclusion that ROLL is “a simple and effective solution for guiding the excision of impalpable breast lesions”, two important dr...
متن کاملRadioguided occult lesion localization versus wire-guided localization for non-palpable breast lesions: randomized controlled trial
AIM This prospective randomized clinical study was conducted to compare radioguided occult lesion localization (ROLL) with wire-guided localization to evaluate optimum localization techniques for non-palpable breast lesions. METHODS A total of 108 patients who were undergoing an excisional biopsy for non-palpable breast lesions requiring pathologic diagnosis were randomly assigned to the ROLL...
متن کاملRadioguided breast surgery for occult lesion localization – correlation between two methods
BACKGROUND The detection of sub-clinical breast lesions has increased with screening mammography. Biopsy techniques can offer precision and agility in its execution, as well as patient comfort. This trial compares radioguided occult lesion localization (ROLL) and wire-guided localization (WL) of breast lesions. We investigate if a procedure at the ambulatorial level (ROLL) could lead to a bette...
متن کاملApplicability of Radioguided Occult Lesion Localization in Non-Palpable Benign Breast Lesions
Mammography screening programs are frequently used for the detection of non-palpable clinically occult breast lesions and the widespread use of high-resolution ultrasound has increased the number of detected masses. Although most of the detected masses are benign and do not require surgery, sometimes surgery is needed because of discordance between results of pathologic and radiologic examinati...
متن کاملRolling out radioguided occult lesion localisation for breast tumours
There is a disconnection between the high-resolution displays in the medical imaging department and what the clinician can detect at the bedside. One example is the flood of impalpable tumours which can account for more than half of those detected by breast cancer screening programs: how to guide the surgeon to where the lesion is? One solution is the subject of the article by Landman et al. in...
