简要总结
False negative rate (FNR) in patients who has accepted neoadjuvant therapy is high. Blue dye and radioisotope as dual-tracer can decrease FNR. Several large clinical trials showed that using dual trace with blue dye and radioisotope can reduce the FNR to less than 10%. But radioisotope is still not approved in China and can cause radiocontamination. A novel dual-tracer which can decrease the FNR in patients after neoadjuvant therapy is urged to be explored. Contrast enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) can make the lymphatic drainage path and sentinel lymph nodes visible. Retrospective studies found that CEUS can locate SLN precisely. So this clinical trial aim to evaluate FNR, detective rate and numbers of SLN by using CEUS combined with blue dye as dual-tracer in sentinel lymph node biopsy in breast cancer patients after neoadjuvant therapy and the accuracy of CEUS for the diagnosis of lymph node metastasis before and after neoadjuvant therapy.

结局指标
主要结局
False negative rate
时间窗: 6 months
The false negative rate (FNR) of sentinel lymph node biopsy using dual-tracer with CEUS and blue dye after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in invasive breast cancer patients. The FNR is calculated as the number of false negative cases divided by the number of false negative plus true positive cases and then multiplied by 100%.
次要结局
- The detective rate of sentinel lymph node biopsy(6 months)
- The average numbers of sentinel lymph node(6 months)
- The accuracy of CEUS in evaluation of axillary lymph nodes in breast cancer(6 months)
