Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Subjects scheduled to undergo lumpectomy

Device: RFID Tag (Health Beacon)
The radiologist or surgeon will place the Health Beacons RFID Tag under ultrasonic or stereotactic guidance. The surgeon will use the Tagfinder to locate the lesion.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. The surgical target is visualized in the removed specimen AND the RFID Tag was removed from the patient's breast. [Within 96 hours after lumpectomy]

    The study endpoints are known soon after the lumpectomy procedure by 1) confirmation of the pathology lab examination; and 2) retrieval of the implanted RFID tag.
