Abstract
This review is a retrospective Meta analysis of 3133 patients evaluating injection techniques for breast lymphoscintigraphy in patients with early stage breast cancer. The optimal protocol for breast lymphoscintigraphy in early breast cancer patients was shown to employ areolar injection methods of radiocolloid over both blue dye and combined radiocolloid/blue dye techniques.
