Breast cancer metastasis is mostly via the lymphatic system, targeting the closest lymphatic nodes which are referred to as the sentinel lymph nodes (SLN). When cancer is diagnosed before cancer cells have spread from the primary tumour to other organs, the patients have a 97% survival chance. Therefore, diagnosing the presence of cancerous cells within the SLN is critical for patient stratification, accurate prognosis and providing optimum treatment plans.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">DRAWBACKS CURRENT CLINICAL SOLUTION<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The gold standard is currently an invasive surgical process called the Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy (SLNB) leading to ex vivo analysis.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, SLNB comes with several drawbacks:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Invasive surgery<\/li>\n<li>Possible allergic reaction to the blue dye<\/li>\n<li>High level clinicians required to perform SLNB diagnosis<\/li>\n<li>Long-waiting time for test results: impact on patient anxiety<\/li>\n<li>False negatives<\/li>\n<li>Expensive<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">PROJECT PARTNERS<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">9 members representing technological and research centres, universities, engineering SMEs, technology transfer consultancy companies and regulatory centres<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">5 countries: Spain, Germany, Bulgaria, Israel and Belgium<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Knowledge areas: biomedicine, biotechnology, materials, physics, optic and electronic systems<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">NEWS: HYPOSENS in Healthio Conference<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The HYPOSENS project has already been successfully presented at Healthio conference held in Barcelona from May 3rd to 5th, where it attracted the attention from health companies, patients and innovative companies.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Contact: <a href=\"mailto:mpassarello@leitat.org\">Martina Passarello<\/a> (LEITAT).
