Background
Sampling of the sentinel lymph node (SLN) in breast cancer provides
accurate information about the condition of the axilla in 95% of cases.
Technically in detecting SLN; radioactive substance, dyers or both are
used. During the COVID-19 (Coronavirus disease 2019) pandemic, delayed
images were not taken in lymphoscintigraphy to reduce the risk of
transmission by shortening the waiting time in our center.
