Application of fluorescein combined with methylene blue in sentinel lymph node biopsy of breast cancer

Abstract Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) for axillary lymph node staging in early breast cancer has been widely recognized. The combination of radio-colloids and dye method is the best method recognized. The reagents and equipment required in the process of the combined method are complex and expe...
