Inclusion criteria: 1. Patients with breast cancer scheduled for SLNB and who are clinically and radiologically (pre-operative ultrasound normal or indeterminate/abnormal and benign FNA or core biopsy) node negative
2. Patients available for follow-up for at least 12 months

Exclusion criteria: 1. Intolerance / hypersensitivity to iron or dextran compounds or Sienna +
2. Patients who cannot / do not receive radioisotope for SLNB
3. Patients with an iron overload disease
4. Patients with pacemakers or other implantable devices in the chest-wall
5. Intolerance / hypersensitivity to patent blue dye in centres where this is used routinely


Age minimum:
Age maximum:
Gender: Female
Health Condition(s) or Problem(s) studied
Breast Cancer
Cancer
Malignant neoplasm of breast
Intervention(s)
SLNB with the standard (patent blue dye and radioisotope; or radioisotope alone) or the new technique (magnetic tracer and hand-held magnetometer). Interventions are the injection of the radioisotope, blue dye and magnetic tracer. Furthermore the detection and localization of the sentinel lymph node with gammaprobe and the hand-held magnetometer.

Pre- and post contrast MRI scan of the axilla.

Primary Outcome(s)
SLNB technique: The proportion of sentinel nodes detected (detection rate) with either the standard (patent blue dye and radioisotope; or radioisotope alone) or the new technique (magnetic tracer and hand-held magnetometer).

MRI sub protocol: Accuracy of MRI for the localisation of SLNs.
Secondary Outcome(s)
