| Popis: | Contrast-enhanced ultrasound of the axilla can be used to identify the axillary sentinel lymph node. We introduced this into our practice in 2013. During the study period there was an upgrade of our US equipment. The purpose of our audit was to see the negative predictive value of CEUS biopsy of the SLN. |
