Magnetic tracking before breast surgery: a medical study
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This study tests a new magnetic tracking method to help surgeons precisely locate breast tumors before surgery. It may help improve the accuracy of breast-conserving surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman aged 18 or older.
- You have a single, small breast tumor (invasive or non-invasive) that needs to be located before surgery.
- This is your first breast-conserving treatment (lumpectomy).
- You have health insurance in France.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You do not need chemotherapy or hormone therapy before surgery.

This study tests a magnetic tracer call Magtrace to help find and remove the first lymph node (sentinel node) during breast cancer surgery. The goal is to see if it works well for people having breast-conserving surgery.
This trial looks at different methods doctors can use to locate a breast lesion using imaging, so it can be removed accurately during breast-conserving surgery. It may help your care team choose the best localization approach for your type and location of lesion.
This trial uses a tiny magnetic seed called Sirius Pintuition to help surgeons find and remove breast cancer that cannot be felt by hand. It may make surgery more precise and easier for you.
This trial tests a new method using magnetic markers (Magtrace and Magseed) to find lymph nodes before chemotherapy. It may help doctors better target the lymph nodes that need to be removed during breast cancer surgery.
This study tests a magnetic marker system (placed in the breast or armpit area) to help surgeons find and remove a suspicious lump or lymph node. If you’re having breast/axillary lesion or node removal, this may help guide the procedure.
This study uses a tiny magnetic marker (called Magseed) placed in a breast cancer–affected underarm lymph node, then tracks whether surgeons can find and remove the correct nodes after chemotherapy. It may help reduce the chance of missing cancer in the underarm while aiming for more accurate surgery.
