Sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy is the standard of care for breast cancer patients with non-palpable axillary lymph nodes. We evaluated the usefulness of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography in preoperative detection of malignant SLNs. Methods: 50 patients with breast cancer (median age: 60 years) underwent a color power Doppler ultrasonography with intravenous contrast (Sonovue®) preoperatively, and findings suggestive of metastatic disease to the SLN were documented. The final histopathological report and the radiological preoperative record were compared. Finally, the sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic accuracy of this evolving diagnostic modality were calculated. Results: Contrast-enhanced ultrasound scan identified a negative SLN in...
