“…The mean size of lesion detected by our study was found to be similar to the study done by Rahusen et al where mean size was 1.34 cm [28]. In estimating accuracy of US guided needle localisation no cases of failed excision were recorded in our study.…”

“…34,35 In the current study, however, we found that VR was not significantly associated with the intraoperative localization method (P ϭ 0.82). Similarly, patient age, final margin status, and the surgeon who performed the surgery were not significantly associated with the size of the final lumpectomy specimen (P Ͼ 0.05).…”

The evaporation behavior of urea‐water‐solution (UWS) droplet was investigated for application to urea‐selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems. A number of experiments were performed with single UWS droplet suspended on the tip of a fine quartz fiber. To cover the temperature range of real‐world diesel exhausts, droplet ambient temperature was regulated from 373 to 873 K using an electrical furnace. As a result of this study, UWS droplet revealed different evaporation characteristics depending on its ambient temperature. At high temperatures, it showed quite complicated behaviors such as bubble formation, distortion, and partial rupture after a linear D2‐law period. However, as temperature decreases, these phenomena became weak and finally disappeared. Also, droplet diminishment coefficients were extracted from transient evaporation histories for various ambient temperatures, which yields a quantitative evaluation on evaporation characteristics of UWS droplet as well as provides valuable empirical data required for modeling or simulation works on urea‐SCR systems. © 2009 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 2009

“…[3][4][5][6][7][8] To this end, advances have been made in image-guided breast surgery for nonpalpable breast cancer, and several studies have shown that the use of ultrasonography (US) for intraoperative tumour localisation results in the most accurate surgical excision. [9][10][11][12][13][14] In daily practice, the excision of palpable breast cancer is guided by palpation. The adequacy of this procedure is based on pre-operative imaging techniques and the experience and tactile abilities of the surgeon.…”

“…[9][10][11][12][13][14] The increasingly more important role of breast US in the intra-operative evaluation of breast cancer calls for efforts from surgeons to perform US-guided breast procedures, particularly in settings where dedicated radiologists are not readily available at all times. Although doubts have been addressed regarding the ability of surgeons to perform breast US, previous studies have shown a high accuracy of breast US performed by surgeons.…”

Conclusion:Surgeons can easily learn the skills needed to perform intra-operative US for palpable breast tumour excision. The technique is non-invasive, simple, safe and effective for obtaining adequate resection margins. Within the first two cases, resections reached optimal volumes, thereby, presumably resulting in improved cosmetic outcomes. In a multicentre, randomised, clinical trial, intra-operative US guidance for palpable breast tumours will be evaluated for oncological ánd cosmetic outcomes. M A N U S C R I P T A C C E P T E D ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT Synopsis:This study evaluates the performance of surgeons during training for ultrasound-guided excision of palpable T1-T2 invasive breast cancer. Our findings reveal that surgeons can rapidly master intra-operative US, which is non-invasive, simple, safe and effective for obtaining adequate resection margins and excision volumes.
