Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The main endpoint is the SN detection rate using the PGC in breast cancer compared to the current method, CGC imaging. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| * Correlation of the SN detection rate with patients subgroups (tumor type, T-stage, etc.) * Utilization of the PGC by nuclear medicine technicians and breast surgeons and the effects on logistics and work-flow at the department of Nuclear Medicine; * PGC SN detection rates correlated to PGC imaging acquisition times. * PGC image quality compared to CGC image quality: SN visualization score (0=no uptake, 1=weak, 2=moderate, 3=intense); * A subjective descriptive analysis of the novel hybrid aspect of the PGC where an optical image is combined with a scintigraphic image to combine functional and anatomical information in a fused image output. | — |
