Official title

Phase 1 Study of Magnetic Breast Marking Clip System MagneMark

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

This small pilot will allow surgeons to perform wireless breast lumpectomies using a new magnetic technology. This is a continuation of a previous project testing the technology, and the breast surgeons comfort level using this new technology. The aim of this project is to develop a new technique for surgical excision of lesions either through surgical biopsy or lumpectomy. The current standard of care involves placing a needle then slender wire through the lesion under image guidance by a radiologist. The surgeon then removes the lesion using the wire as a guide. This new technique would place a magnet through the lesion under image guidance by a radiologist. The surgeon would then use the MagneProbe in the operating room to locate the magnet and remove the lesion. This new technique would eliminate the use of a wire that protrudes from a patient's breast. This wire is usually placed on the day of surgery, prior to the procedure. The goal of this new technique is to eliminate wire placement and increase patient comfort throughout the day of her surgery.
