3D ultrasound to check lymph nodes in breast cancer
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This early-phase study tests a 3D ultrasound scan to see lymph nodes in people being evaluated for breast cancer. It may help doctors better image lymph nodes during routine care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be 18 years or older
- Have had a lymph node biopsy or a lymph node clip placed as part of standard care
- Be able and willing to consent to join the study
- Not be in a vulnerable category such as being incarcerated
- Not be unable to consent due to decision-making capacity issues

This study tests special ultrasound and/or MRI imaging to better detect and track breast cancer and related changes over time. You may be asked to have scans around the time of biopsy or during treatment to help doctors see small blood-vessel changes in the breast.
This study tests how well a new 3D ultrasound method can “see” a solid breast lump that is being biopsied. It may help doctors get clearer images to guide diagnosis, especially alongside a standard biopsy.
This trial tests a new ultrasound marker to help surgeons find and remove cancer-positive lymph nodes during breast cancer surgery. The marker makes the node easier to see on ultrasound so it can be taken out accurately.
This study tests a new 3-D ultrasound technique to look at breast lumps in more detail. It may help doctors tell if a lump is cancer without needing a biopsy.
This study uses ultrasound to look at the lymph nodes under the arm in people with newly diagnosed breast cancer. It aims to better understand what these images show before surgery, which may help guide treatment decisions.
This study uses a special ultrasound probe during surgery to check lymph nodes for cancer. It aims to see if this tool can help doctors make better decisions during your gynecological cancer surgery without needing extra tests.
