Improved technology has created multiple new ways of localizing non-palpable breast lesions. This activity will educate surgeons on the various options available for wireless localization. We will educate the surgeon on choosing which system works best for their patient, as well as the techniques that need to be used to perform these procedures in their practice. Upon completion of this lecture, participants will be able to: Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of wire vs wire-free breast tumor localization for surgical guidance Describe techniques for wire-free localization in the breast Explain the use of wire-free localization and neoadjuvant treatment Understand the impact of wire-free localization on oncoplastic breast surgery techniques
