What was measured

Relative node detection sensitivity (S) was defined as the proportion of sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) that were identified with each instrument, with the proportion determined as the number of true positives (TP) divided by the total evaluated (N). The outcome result is expressed as the percentage for each device with 95% confidence intervals.

Analysis population: Sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) were evaluated for detection by the 2 methods.

Groups in this outcome

Intraoperative Handheld Gamma Camera (pIHGC)

The prototype intraoperative handheld gamma camera (pIHGC) radioactive Tc99M: Lymphoscintigraphy involves injection of 0.4 to 1.0 mCi of radioactive Tc99M sulfur colloid around at the tumor site.

Gamma Probes (GP)

Lymphoscintigraphy with standard of care intraoperative gamma probes (GP) radioactive Tc99M: Lymphoscintigraphy involves injection of 0.4 to 1.0 mCi of radioactive Tc99M sulfur colloid around at the tumor site.

Group identifiers and denominators belong to this outcome only. They may differ in another outcome or in safety reporting.
