| Abstract: | Specimen mammograms are often a time-consuming event for image-guided surgery. The use of an intraoperative imaging device may improve the speed of surgery, but comparison must be made to ensure accuracy is maintained. One hundred fifty consecutive image localized patients underwent both intraoperative digital specimen mammogram (in the operating room) and standard specimen mammogram (in radiology). Intraoperative mammograms as read by breast surgeons were as accurate as standard films while saving an average of 19 minutes per operative procedure. Intraoperative digital specimen mammograms can accurately identify target lesions while saving operating room time. |
