MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Breasts With Successful Placement of the Implant Posterior to the Mammary Gland at 6 Weeks After Treatment6 weeksInclusion was made in steps in group of 4 subjects. The subjects were followed-up with MRI 1-5 days after the injection to document correct injection technique. Before the next group were treated, the Expert Group evaluated the 6-week follow-up results of the previous group. The injection procedure was, if necessary, changed in accordance with specifically pre-defined parameters.
