Routine breast cancer biopsy might predict lymph node cancer spread
sciencedaily.com — “Predicting breast cancer spread from a sentinel lymph node removed during surgery is a hit or miss affair, say researchers: there are still many false negatives, which means the node, when analyzed under a microscope, appears clean of cancer cells, but metastasis can still occur in the patient. The sentinel node is the first lymph node in the axilla that cancer spreads to.” View full resource at sciencedaily.com
