Key inclusion & exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Patient with operable stage I-II breast cancer diagnosed preoperatively by core biopsy or cytology (cT1-2N0).
Exclusion criteria: 1. Refusal of the patient to be included in the study;

2. Pregnant or breast-feeding;

3. Significant renal dysfunction (serum creatinine above 400 micromol/L);

4. cardiac and/or pulmonary disease (ASA III-IV);

5. History of iodine allergy or anaphylactic reactions to insect bites or medication;

6. Presence or history of hyperthyroidism;

Age minimum:
Age maximum:
Gender:
Health Condition(s) or Problem(s) studied
Breast cancer

Intervention(s)
Patients with operable breast cancer stage I-II undergoing a lumpectomy, combined with a sentinel lymph node procedure, will receive prior to a lumpectomy and SLN procedure an intratumoral injection with indocyanin green (ICG).
During the operative procedure NIRF imaging for detection of the SLN (i.e. ICG accumulation) will take place.
Primary Outcome(s)
Whether ICG enhanced NIRF imaging is able to detect sentinel lymph nodes as good as or better than the standard technique (technetium-99 labelled colloid and Patent Blue) during breast surgery in 97%± 2% of the cases.
Secondary Outcome(s)
The number of lymph nodes detected by ICG enhanced NIRF imaging during breast surgery.
