Evaluation of methods used to guide breast conserving surgery by Australian and New Zealand breast surgeons

s / The Breast 24 (2015) 302e307 305 Results: This study has commenced recruitment with small local grants. It brings together the multi-disciplinary team caring for these patients, builds expertise in breast MRI and PET, and can potentially improve the quality of life of these women. While pathological response will be reported and a bio-specimen bankwill be obtainedwith imaging correlation, the focus of this study is local control and quality of life for women with LABC. Conclusions: This standardised clinical protocol allows both the opportunity to choose BCS for women with LABC and the opportunity to choose the most effective PST by identifying the most accurate way of assessing disease extent at diagnosis and in response to PST.
