| Abstract | Currently, the majority of lumpectomy and excisional biopsy procedures involving non-palpable breast lesions are performed using the wire localization technique. We are investigating dual modality surgical guidance as a means of overcoming many of the problems associated with wire localization. The technique uses a dual modality (digital mammography, breast scintigraphy) breast imaging system to place a marker composed of radiolabeled albumin into the lesion. In order to assist the surgeon in identifying a possible surgical path, a point will be marked on the surface of the breast that is geometrically closest to the lesion (the closest skin point, or CSP). In this paper we present the results of measurements of the localization and needle positioning accuracy of our system. We also describe the results of phantom measurements designed to determine the impact of mild breast compression on identification of the CSP. The localization accuracy was found to be within 0.4 mm for both X-ray and gamma imaging. On average, the errors in injection accuracy were 0.4, 0.6, and 0.5 mm for the x, y, and z dimensions, respectively. The result of the compressible phantom tests was that the path length from the lesion to the CSP determined under mild compression differed from that with the breast uncompressed by only ~10%. These results provide encouragement that we can accurately locate a lesion, inject the radiomarker into it, and identify a potential incision point whose distance from the lesion is within 10% of the shortest possible distance. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
