SmartClip and navigation system during lumpectomy
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This study tests a new navigation system used during breast-conserving surgery (lumpectomy). It helps the surgeon locate and remove tumors more precisely using a tiny marker placed beforehand.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a breast lesion that can be seen on imaging (like a mammogram or ultrasound).
- You are planning a lumpectomy (breast-conserving surgery) for breast cancer or DCIS.
- You will receive a small marker (SmartClip) placed in your breast to guide the surgeon.
- You are 18 years old or older.

This trial studies a new method (SAVI Scout) to help surgeons locate and remove breast tumors more precisely during surgery. It may reduce the need for multiple markers and improve outcomes.
This trial tests a new imaging system that helps surgeons see if cancer cells remain after breast-conserving surgery. It may reduce the need for a second surgery by giving real-time feedback on the removed tissue.
This trial tests a new surgical marker called Canopus that helps doctors find and remove breast tumors or affected lymph nodes during surgery. It may help you get more precise treatment.
This trial tests an augmented reality (AR) tool to help surgeons locate breast cancer tumors during breast-conserving surgery. You may join if you have a single, small invasive breast tumor and have not had chemotherapy before surgery.
This trial tests a new laser scanner that helps doctors see if all cancer cells are removed during breast-conserving surgery, which might reduce the need for a second operation.
This study tests a new imaging tool that helps surgeons see if any cancer cells are left behind during a lumpectomy. It may reduce the need for a second surgery.
