Study Summary

In this study, the investigators will enroll women with palpable cancers to assess the accuracy of the Breast Cancer Locator (BCL) and the concomitant procedure as a vehicle to optimize and validate the approach in such surgical cases. This approach of adopting palpable cancer patients before initiating an evaluative trial of the BCL in non-palpable breast cancer cases ensures that the BCL does not substantially alter or modify the standard-of-care procedure.

Primary Outcome

Five measurements will be made per patient and the mean difference in distance will be derived between the palpated and the co-registered supine MRI-optical scan image predicted tumor edges. The BCL will be considered accurate if all 5 measurements are \> 0 cm from the tumor edge.
