- •
98 bilateral therapeutic mammaplasty patients underwent WLE and faxitron imaging.
- •
Post-WLE cavity margins were removed and imaged in all cases.
- •
Retrospective analysis of histology revealed cancer in 15% of cavity specimens.
- •
Our complete excision rate would have been 85% hadn’t we had faxitron.
- •
This is an important preliminary report showing a trend.
