Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| With this study the (technical) feasibility of autofluorescence ductoscopy will be studied. The number and characteristics of intraductal lesions found with the two different types of ductoscopy (white-light vs. autofluorescence) will be compared. The number and visual characteristics of lesions found (and marked) by ductoscopy will be compared to the number and characteristics of lesions found by pathological analysis of the mastectomy specimens. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To investigate the correlation between the projected characteristics of a precursor lesion in white and autofluorescent light and its histological characteristics. * | — |
