Strength training may be getting underdosed among women who undergo mastectomy or axillary lymph node dissection for breast ...

Axillary lymph node dissection showed only minor balance-test differences while preserving overall improvement magnitude, ...

Barcelona, Spain: Patients with breast cancer may be able to avoid lymphoedema, which can occur after surgery to remove lymph nodes in the armpit (the axilla), by having radiotherapy instead. New ...

Patients with breast cancer may be able to avoid lymphedema, which can occur after surgery to remove lymph nodes in the armpit (the axilla), by having radiotherapy instead. New findings, presented at ...

The armpit is a complex junction where muscles, nerves, blood vessels, and lymph nodes meet. Because it is such a busy area of the body, experiencing pain there is surprisingly common. For some, it is ...

Trough computed tomography (CT), it is possible to evaluate lymph nodes in detail and to detect changes in these structures earlier than with radiographs and ultrasound. Lack of information in the ...

New research led by King's College London suggests that a simple test already used in clinics could provide valuable additional insights into how the body's immune system responds to cancer, without ...

Background: Axillary lymph node metastasis (ALNM) significantly influences staging, treatment, and prognosis in breast cancer. Current assessment relies on invasive procedures such as sentinel lymph ...

A project at Lund University in Sweden has trained an AI model to identify breast cancer patients who could be spared from axillary surgery. The model analyzes previously unutilized information in ...

Abstract: This study aimed to develop a noninvasive tool to predict axillary lymph node metastasis (ALNM) using a multimodality radiomics based on mammography (MMG) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI ...

The benefit of regional nodal irradiation in the treatment of breast cancer is well established for patients with pathologically positive axillary nodes, but whether it is also beneficial for patients ...
