A sentinel node procedure is
recommended for patients with early stages of breast cancer to exclude
metastases to local lymph nodes. This procedure is done with a "tracer"
which is injected near to the tumor and drains to these nearby lymph
nodes. The first draining lymph node(s) are called "sentinel" node(s).
These sentinel nodes are excised by the surgeon for microscopic
investigation using a detection probe. This study aims to further
document the distribution and dynamics of a recently approved new tracer
called Tilmanocept and comparing it with
the standard used tracer (nanocolloid) to determine whether there is a
significant difference between both products (which are both approved
for clinical use in this scenario in the European Union). This will be
done by randomly assigning patients between injection of Tilmanocept or Nanocolloid and making scans on multiple (3) time points.
