Comparative research on 99mTc-Rituximab and 99mTc-sulfur colloid in sentinel lymph node imaging of breast cancer
BMC Cancer Oct 22, 2019
Zhang JJ, et al. - Experts performed a study in which 99mTc-Rituximab was contrasted with filtered 99mTc-sulfur colloid (fTcSC) for sentinel lymph node (SLN) detection in individuals with breast cancer. The variation existed in the internal mammary and clavicular area, and not in the axillary. 99m-Rituximab showed a notably quicker injection site clearance rate in comparison with fTcSC. In conclusion, between the two tracers, no notable variation was seen in the recognition rate and the number of axillary SLN imaging and SLN biopsy. Furthermore, in comparison with fTcSC, 99mTc-Rituximab based imaging exhibited a less number of secondary lymph nodes and had a quicker injection site clearance rate.
