I’d like to see how it works with frozen sections lol

Productivity tool for sure. Future will probably be more like measuring ctDNA mutation and cfDNA levels.

Liquid biopsy, wave of the future dude.

Well, obviously not... Does it seem like breast surgeons are doing less sentinel node frozens than they used to? When I was a resident, it seemed like they would always do them. I've still gotten them every once in a while, but less frequently.

Compared to the prostate tool - this seems simplistic. How about diagnose the cancer on breast core (sub-type, grade it & measure it) or find the tiny micro calc in the 20 profiles tissue on the 4 levels if you really want to save me some time.
