First Patient Enrolled in the Streamlined Localization (STREAMLoc) Registry Study Using SCOUT® at Biopsy in Canada
By implanting a tiny reflector, the size of a grain of rice, physicians may be able to precisely target affected tissue.
- By implanting a tiny reflector, the size of a grain of rice, physicians may be able to precisely target affected tissue.
- The STREAMLoc registry study will add to the body of research supporting the use of the SCOUT system to improve efficiency in patient care between biopsy and surgery.
- This is of high importance, particularly during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic which has imposed substantial logistical challenges to healthcare delivery in Canada.
- Study outcomes will be assessed from the initial placement of the SCOUT reflector during biopsy to its removal.
