The Effect of Wire Versus Magnetic Seed Localization on Lumpectomy Cavity Size. Pract Radiat Oncol 2024; 14:e255-e263. [PMID: 38161002 DOI: 10.1016/j.prro.2023.12.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2023] [Revised: 11/29/2023] [Accepted: 12/01/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Our purpose was to assess whether an association exists between surgical localization technique and lumpectomy cavity size on radiation therapy planning computed tomography (CT) scan. METHODS AND MATERIALS A single-institution retrospective review was conducted of women undergoing breast conserving surgery with wire or magnetic seed guided lumpectomy followed by adjuvant radiation therapy from 2018 to 2021. Patients of a surgeon only performing 1 localization technique or undergoing bracketed localization were excluded. The primary outcome was lumpectomy cavity size on simulation CT. Confounding due to imbalance in patient and tumor factors was addressed with overlap weights derived from a propensity score analysis and used in a weighted multivariable analysis. Secondary outcomes included positive margins, total pathologic volume, boost delivery, and boost modality. RESULTS Of 617 women who received lumpectomy during the study period, 387 were included in final analysis. Tumors of patients undergoing seed localization were more likely unifocal, assessable by ultrasound, and smaller. Seed use rates ranged from 27.7% to 70.7% per surgeon. There was no difference in positive margins (6.4 vs 5.4%, P = .79) or second surgeries (9.4 vs 8.1%, P = .79) between groups. Close margin rates were similar for ductal carcinoma in situ (P = .35) and invasive carcinoma (P = .97). In unadjusted bivariable analyses, wire localization was associated with larger total pathology volume (P = .004), but localization technique showed no association with CT cavity volume (P = .15). After adjusting for potentially confounding variables, multivariable analysis failed to show an association between localization technique and either CT cavity (P = .35) or total path volume (P = .08). There was no difference in indicated-boost delivery (P = .15) or electron boost (P = .14) by localization technique. CONCLUSIONS There was no significant difference in CT cavity size by localization technique, suggesting choice between surgical techniques does not impede radiation therapy boost delivery.

Non-palpable breast lesions localization techniques - A new priority: Results of a Senonetwork survey among breast centers in Italy. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF SURGICAL ONCOLOGY 2024; 50:108471. [PMID: 39002445 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2024.108471] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2024] [Revised: 05/18/2024] [Accepted: 06/04/2024] [Indexed: 07/15/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Non palpable breast tumors are increasingly diagnosed because of screening programs, and their localization during surgery is essential to ensure an adequate resection. Little is known regarding which techniques are used in "real world". MATERIALS AND METHODS A national web-based survey, with a 21-items questionnaire, was conducted among Breast Centers (BCs) in Italy in 2023. RESULTS Among 153 BCs, 110 (72 %) participated. Wire-guided localization was reported to be the most used technique, regardless of the volume of malignant tumors treated by each Center (N = 36, 33 %). However, newer techniques such as Radioactive occult lesion localization and magnetic seeds, were reported to be employed in 34 (31 %) BCs, and more often among high-volume BCs (>300 cases/year) (N = 32, 29 % vs. N = 13, 12 %; p = 0.02). Logistic problems of localization were reported to cause delays to the scheduled surgery at least once or in multiple occasions in 26 (24 %) and in 4 (3.5 %) BCs, respectively. Although the majority of BCs declared they were satisfied (N = 48, 44 %) or somewhat satisfied (N = 41, 37 %) with the procedure used in their center, responders stated that they would change their technique, or that they were strongly considering this possibility in 24 (22 %) and in 38 (35 %) cases, respectively. The main barrier to introducing a new technique was associated with procedure costs (90 BCs, 82 %). CONCLUSIONS There are several critical issues regarding localization techniques at a national level. This should be recognized as a priority because of its impact on both patients and clinical practices.

Surgical marker navigation system in breast conserving surgery and excision of non-palpable lesions: first Spanish single-center experience. Breast Cancer Res Treat 2024:10.1007/s10549-024-07382-y. [PMID: 38806876 DOI: 10.1007/s10549-024-07382-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2024] [Accepted: 05/17/2024] [Indexed: 05/30/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to the establishment of screening mammography for breast cancer detection, the number of non-palpable lesions has increased. Thus, an optimal localization system is mandatory for the excision of non-palpable breast tumors. OBJECTIVE The aim of the study is to report the feasibility Surgical Marker Navigation (SMN) system Sirius Pintuition® for the excision of non-palpable breast tumors and non-palpable axillary lymph nodes. METHODS A retrospective observational study of patients undergoing breast-conserving surgery and lymph node excision guided by SMN between December 2022 and May 2023 was performed. RESULTS A total of 84 patients underwent excision of non-palpable breast tumors (77; 91.7%) or non-palpable axillary lymph-nodes (7; 8.3%) using SMN. In total, 94 markers were placed, in 74 patients (88.1%) only one marker was placed, whereas in 10 patients (11.9%) two markers were placed to correctly localize the lesion in the operating room. Most markers were placed using ultrasonographic guidance (69; 82.1%). Seventy-seven patients underwent breast-conserving surgery (91.7%) and 7 (8.3%) lymph node excision. In 10 cases (11.9%), the marker was accidentally displaced during surgery due to the use of magnetized instruments, although the specimen could be removed. In sum, all the markers were removed from the patients, although the marker retrieval rate, as we defined it (percentage of patients in whom the initial excised specimen contained the marker divided by the total number of patients), was 88.1%. CONCLUSION The use of Sirius Pintuition® SMN for non-palpable breast tumors and non-palpable lymph nodes is feasible, with a retrieval rate of 88.1%.

Front Oncol 2024; 14:1325362. [PMID: 38854734 PMCID: PMC11157007 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2024.1325362] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2023] [Accepted: 04/30/2024] [Indexed: 06/11/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided wire localization can be applied to assist to remove suspected breast lesions accurately. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical application value of this technique in Chinese women. Methods A total of 126 patients (131 lesions) who had underwent such technique in our hospital from April 2017 to June 2023 were enrolled. 1.5T MRI system and a wire localization device were used. Image characteristics, clinical features and postoperative pathology were collected and analyzed. Results All of 126 patients (131 lesions) were successfully localized by MRI and excised for biopsy. There were 39 malignant lesions (29.77%) and 92 benign lesions (70.23%). There was no significant correlation between the morphology of DCE-MRI and the ratio of malignant lesions (P=0.763), while there was a statistical correlation between the BPE, TIC curve and the malignancy rate (P<0.05). All the lesions were assessed according to BI-RADS category of MRI (C4A=77, C4B=40, C4C=12, C5=2). The malignancy rates were as follows: 16.88% for 4A lesions (13/77), 37.50% for 4B lesions (15/40), 75.00% for 4C lesions (9/12) and 100% for 5 lesions (2/2). There was a significant correlation between the BI-RADS category and the incidence of benign-to-malignant lesions (P<0.001). Conclusion MRI-guided wire localization can assist to remove suspected breast lesions early, safely and accurately. This technique makes up for the deficiency of X-ray and ultrasound, improves the accuracy of diagnosis and resection therapy in intraductal carcinoma and early invasive carcinoma, and helps to improve the the prognosis of breast cancer.

Abstract
Background and Objective With an increasing number of non-palpable breast lesions detected due to improved screening, accurate localization of these lesions for surgery is crucial. This literature review explores the evolution of localization methods for non-palpable breast lesions, highlighting the translational journey from concept to clinical practice. Methods A comprehensive search of PubMed, Embase, and Scopus databases until September 2023 was conducted. Key Content and Findings Multiple methods have been developed throughout the past few decades. (I) Wire-guided localization (WGL) introduced in 1966, has become a reliable method for localization. Its simplicity and cost-effectiveness are its key advantages, but challenges include logistical constraints, patient discomfort, and potential wire migration. (II) Intraoperative ultrasound localization (IOUS) has shown promise in ensuring complete lesion removal with higher negative margin rates. However, its utility is limited to lesions visible on ultrasound (US) imaging. (III) Breast biopsy marker localization: the use of markers has improved the precision of localization without the need for wire. However, marker visibility remains a challenge despite improvements in their design. (IV) Radioactive techniques: radio-guided occult lesion localization (ROLL) and radioactive seed localization (RSL) offer flexibility in scheduling and improved patient comfort. However, they require close multidisciplinary collaboration and specific equipment due to radioactive concerns. (V) Other wireless non-radioactive techniques: wireless non-radioactive techniques have been developed in recent three decades to provide flexible and patient-friendly alternatives. It includes magnetic seed localization, radar techniques, and radiofrequency techniques. Their usage has been gaining popularity due to their safety profile and allowance of more flexible scheduling. However, their high cost and need for additional training remain a barrier to a wider adoption. Conclusions The evolution of breast lesion localization methods has progressed to more patient-friendly techniques, each with its unique advantages and limitations. Future research on patient-reported outcomes, cosmetic outcomes, breast biopsy markers and integration of augmented reality with breast lesion localization are needed.

JOURNAL OF BIOMEDICAL OPTICS 2024; 29:030901. [PMID: 38440101 PMCID: PMC10911048 DOI: 10.1117/1.jbo.29.3.030901] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2023] [Revised: 01/10/2024] [Accepted: 02/06/2024] [Indexed: 03/06/2024]
Abstract
Significance Breast-conserving surgery (BCS) is limited by high rates of positive margins and re-operative interventions. Fluorescence-guided surgery seeks to detect the entire lesion in real time, thus guiding the surgeons to remove all the tumor at the index procedure. Aim Our aim was to identify the optimal combination of a camera system and fluorophore for fluorescence-guided BCS. Approach A systematic review of medical databases using the terms "fluorescence," "breast cancer," "surgery," and "fluorescence imaging" was performed. Cameras were compared using the ratio between the fluorescent signal from the tumor compared to background fluorescence, as well as diagnostic accuracy measures, such as sensitivity, specificity, and positive predictive value. Results Twenty-one studies identified 14 camera systems using nine different fluorophores. Twelve cameras worked in the infrared spectrum. Ten studies reported on the difference in strength of the fluorescence signal between cancer and normal tissue, with results ranging from 1.72 to 4.7. In addition, nine studies reported on whether any tumor remained in the resection cavity (5.4% to 32.5%). To date, only three studies used the fluorescent signal for guidance during real BCS. Diagnostic accuracy ranged from 63% to 98% sensitivity, 32% to 97% specificity, and 75% to 100% positive predictive value. Conclusion In this systematic review, all the studies reported a clinically significant difference in signal between the tumor and normal tissue using various camera/fluorophore combinations. However, given the heterogeneity in protocols, including camera setup, fluorophore studied, data acquisition, and reporting structure, it was impossible to determine the optimal camera and fluorophore combination for use in BCS. It would be beneficial to develop a standardized reporting structure using similar metrics to provide necessary data for a comparison between camera systems.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF THE REPORT Localization techniques are needed to facilitate resection of nonpalpable lesions. In this study, the feasibility of radio-guided occult lesion localization (ROLL) with 99m Tc is investigated for the localization of nonpalpable, small, suspicious, or proven melanoma or soft tissue sarcoma lesions at various locations throughout the body. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with nonpalpable, suspicious, or proven melanoma or soft tissue sarcoma lesions were selected for this study. Within 24 hours before surgery, a median dose of 33.92 MBq 99m Tc-labeled human albumin particles ( 99m Tc-NA or 99m Tc-MAA) was injected in the lesion under ultrasound guidance. A hand-held gamma probe was used to detect the radioactive signal and guidance during surgery. RESULTS In this study, 20 patients with a total of 25 lesions were included and analyzed. The median size of the lesions was 1.8 cm (interquartile range [IQR], 1.8-4.0 cm), of which 44% were intramuscular located and 36% were subcutaneous, and 20% consisted of suspicious lymph nodes, mostly in the lower extremity. At median 4 hours (IQR, 3-6 hours) postinjection, 99m Tc ROLL showed a 100% intraoperative identification rate with proper signal identification with the gamma probe in all patients. With a median surgery time of 76 minutes (IQR, 45-157 minutes), all targeted lesions could be resected without 99m Tc-related complications, resulting in 88% microscopically margin-negative resection. No reoperations were needed for the same lesion. CONCLUSIONS The 99m Tc ROLL procedure is feasible for the localization and excision of small, nonpalpable melanoma and soft tissue sarcoma lesions at various locations in the body.

Abstract
Background The past 3 decades have seen an unprecedented shift toward treatment de-escalation in surgical therapy of breast cancer. Summary Radical mastectomy has been replaced by breast-conserving and oncoplastic approaches in most patients, and full axillary lymph node dissection by less radical staging procedures, such as sentinel lymph node biopsy and targeted axillary dissection. Further, attempts have been made to spare healthy tissue while increasing the probability of removing the tumor with clear margins, thus improving cosmetic results and minimizing the risk of local recurrence. In this context, modern probe-guided localization techniques have been introduced to guide surgical excision. This progress was accompanied by the development of targeted systemic therapies. At the same time, radiotherapy for breast cancer has undergone significant changes. The use of hypofractionation has decreased the typical length of a treatment course from 5-6 weeks to 1-3 weeks. Partial breast irradiation is now a valid option for de-escalation in patients with low-risk features. Axillary radiotherapy achieves similar recurrence rates and decreases the risk of lymphedema in patients with limited sentinel node involvement. Key Messages Taken together, these advances are important steps toward individualization of locoregional management strategies. This highlights the importance of interdisciplinary approaches for de-escalation of locoregional therapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND SmartClipTM is a food and drug administration-approved, electromagnetic chip (EMC) localization system that provides three-dimensional navigation for the excision of soft tissue lesions. The purpose of this study was to analyze the accuracy and feasibility of EMC radiologic and surgical localization for benign and malignant breast lesions. PATIENTS AND METHODS An institutional review board-approved, single institution, prospective study from October 2020 to September 2022 of 38 women undergoing breast conserving surgery with EMC localization of a single lesion > 5 mm on mammogram (MMG) or ultrasound (US) imaging. Surveys from performing breast radiologists and breast surgeons were collected after image-guided localization and surgical excision. RESULTS Seventy-six survey responses from nine radiologists and four surgeons were received. The deployment needle and EMC were highly visible in 86.8% and 76.3% of procedures, respectively. There was no difficulty in deployment for 92.1% of procedures. The EMC was in the correct location on postdeployment MMG in 97.4% of cases. Three instances of EMC migration occurred, one 1 cm from target lesion. The targeted mass and EMC were within the surgical specimen in 97.4% of cases. On specimen radiograph, 39.5% of the EMCs were 0-1 mm from the center of the target lesion, 18.4% were within 2-4 mm, and 23.7% were within 5-10 mm. Mean operating room time for all cases was 65 min. One case required US to localize the target due to console malfunction. CONCLUSION There was successful EMC deployment by radiologists with accurate visualization and successful surgical excision in most cases. The EnVisioTM SmartClipTM system is a reproducible and accurate localization method for benign and malignant breast lesions.

Gland Surg 2023; 12:1233-1241. [PMID: 37842539 PMCID: PMC10570981 DOI: 10.21037/gs-23-27] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2023] [Accepted: 07/20/2023] [Indexed: 10/17/2023]
Abstract
Background There is little literature comparing intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS) with radio-guided occult lesions localization (ROLL) in nonpalpable invasive tumors in breast conserving surgery (BCS). There is a need to compare these two methods in terms of safety and efficacy. Methods This is an observational cohort study. All patients treated with BCS for nonpalpable invasive breast cancer using IOUS from March 2016 to March 2020 were included and compared with a historical reference control group operated on using ROLL from March 2013 to March 2017. For each detection method, the ability to locate tumors intraoperatively, tumor and surgical specimen sizes, total resection volume (TRV), optimal resection volume, excess of healthy tissue resected (ETR), margin status, re-excision rate, surgical time, complications and costs were studied. Results One hundred and fifty-eight were included, 83 with IOUS and 75 with ROLL. The mean tumor size is equivalent in both groups (11.88 mm IOUS vs. 12.29 mm ROLL, P=0.668). TRV is significantly lower with IOUS (24.92 vs. 60.32 cm3, P<0.001), and the ETR is also significantly lower in the IOUS group (21.74 vs. 58.37 cm3, P<0.001). The rate of positive margins did not differ (10.98% vs. 12.16%, P=1), nor did re-excision rate (10.98% vs. 8.11%, P=0.597). Complication rate did not differ (12.2% IOUS vs. 10.81% ROLL, P=0.808). Surgical time was shorter in IOUS (45.5 vs. 57 min, P>0.05). Conclusions IOUS in BCS for nonpalpable invasive breast cancer is more accurate than ROLL because it decreases excision volumes with the same rate of free margins and re-excision. Also, IOUS is a more efficient and comfortable technique, and just as safe as ROLL.

Effectiveness of Carbon Localization for Invasive Breast Cancer: An Institutional Experience. Breast J 2023; 2023:4082501. [PMID: 37496746 PMCID: PMC10368511 DOI: 10.1155/2023/4082501] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2022] [Revised: 05/21/2023] [Accepted: 07/08/2023] [Indexed: 07/28/2023]
Abstract
Introduction The final oncological and aesthetic results of breast-conserving surgery (BCS) are influenced by the precise localization of breast cancer (BC) tumors and by the quality of the intraoperative margin assessment technique. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of the carbon localization (CL) technique by determining the success rate of BC identification and the proportion of adequate complete resection of BC lesions. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional retrospective study of patients treated with primary BCS for invasive BC who underwent CL of their BC lesion at the Jules Bordet Institute between January 2015 and December 2017. Descriptive statistics with categorical and continuous variables were used. The success rate of tumor identification and the rate of adequate excision were calculated using the test of percentages for independent dichotomous data. Results This study included 542 patients with 564 nonpalpable BC lesions. The median pathological tumor size was 12 mm. Of these, 460 were invasive ductal carcinomas. Most of the tumors were of the luminal subtype. CL was performed using ultrasound guidance in 98.5% of cases. The median delay between CL and surgery was 5 days, with 46% of the patients having CL one day before surgery. The lumpectomy weighed 38 g on average, with a median diameter of the surgical sample at 6 cm and a median volume of 44 cm3 (6-369). One-stage complete resection was successfully performed in 93.4% of cases. In 36% of cases, an intraoperative re-excision was performed, based on intraoperative macroscopic pathological margin evaluation. The tumor was identified in 98.9% of cases in the breast surgical specimen. Conclusion This study demonstrated high success rates for BC tumor identification (99%) and one-stage complete resection (93.4%) after BCS and CL. These results show that CL is an effective, simple, and inexpensive localization technique for successful excision of BC lesions during BCS.

Abstract
AIM The purpose of this study is to report the surgical experience and outcomes with pre-operative localisation of non-palpable breast lesions using the RFID tag system. METHODS The cohort for this prospective study included patients over the age of 18 with biopsy proven, non-palpable indeterminate lesions, DCIS or breast cancer requiring pre-operative localisation before surgical excision between September 2020 and July 2022. RESULTS A total of 312 RFID tags were placed in 299 consecutive patients. Indications for localisation included non-palpable invasive cancer in 255 (85.3%) patients, in situ disease in 38 (12.7%) and indeterminate lesions requiring surgical excision in 6 (2.0%). Both in situ and invasive lesions had a median size of 13 mm (range 4-100 mm) on pre-operative imaging. The RFID tags were in situ for a median time of 21 days before surgery (range 0-233 days). Of the 213 tags, 292 (93.6%) were introduced using ultrasound (USS) guidance and stereotactically in 20 (6.4%). In 3 (1.0%) cases the RFID tag was either not satisfactorily deployed at the intended target or retrieved intra-operatively. Following discussion of post-operative histology by the multi-disciplinary team, further surgery for close or involved margins was for 26 (8.7%) patients. CONCLUSION The Hologic RFID tag system can be used for accurate pre-operative localisation of non-palpable masses as well as diffuse abnormalities such as mammographic distortions and calcifications. It has advantages of flexibility for scheduling image-guided insertion independently of scheduled operating lists and can be placed to localise lesions prior to initiating neoadjuvant systemic treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative localization is necessary for nonpalpable breast lesions. A novel procedure, fluoroscopic intraoperative neoplasm and node detection (FIND), obviates the preoperative painful and potentially expensive localization by using intraoperative visualization of the standard clip placed during diagnostic biopsy. We hypothesized FIND would improve negative margin rates. STUDY DESIGN This is an IRB-approved retrospective study (September 2016 to March 2021). Electronic chart review identified breast and axillary node procedures using wire localization (WL) or FIND. Primary outcome was margin status. Secondary outcomes included re-excision rate, specimen weight, surgery time, and axillary node localization rate. RESULTS We identified 459 patients, of whom 116 (25.3%) underwent FIND and 343 (74.7%) WL. Of these, 68.1% of FIND and 72.0% of WL procedures were for malignant lesions. Final margin positivity was 5.1% (4 of 79) for FIND and 16.6% (41 of 247) for WL (p = 0.008). This difference lost statistical significance on multivariable logistic regression (p = 0.652). Re-excision rates were 7.6% and 14.6% for FIND and WL (p = 0.125), with an equivalent mean specimen weight (p = 0.502), and mean surgery time of 177.5 ± 81.7 and 157.1 ± 66.8 minutes, respectively (mean ± SD; p = 0.022). FIND identified all (29 of 29) targeted axillary nodes, and WL identified only 80.1% (21 of 26) (p = 0.019). CONCLUSIONS FIND has lower positive margin rates and a trend towards lower re-excision rates compared with WL, proving its value in localizing nonpalpable breast lesions. It also offers accurate localization of axillary nodes, valuable in the era of targeted axillary dissection. It is a method of visual localization, using a skill and equipment surgeons already have, and saves patients and medical systems an additional schedule-disruptive, painful procedure, especially valuable when using novel localization devices is cost-prohibitive.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical excision of a non-palpable breast lesion requires a localization step. Among available techniques, wire-guided localization (WGL) is most commonly used. Other techniques (radioactive, magnetic, radar or radiofrequency-based, and intraoperative ultrasound) have been developed in the last two decades with the aim of improving outcomes and logistics. METHODS We performed a systematic review on localization techniques for non-palpable breast cancer. RESULTS For most techniques, oncological outcomes such as lesion identification and clear margin rate seem either comparable with or better than for WGL, but evidence is limited to small cohort studies for some of the devices. Intraoperative ultrasound is associated with significantly higher negative margin rates in meta-analyses of randomized clinical trials (RCTs). Radioactive techniques were studied in several RCTs and are non-inferior to WGL. Smaller studies show higher patient preference towards wire-free localization, but little is known about surgeons' and radiologists' attitudes towards these techniques. CONCLUSIONS Large studies with an additional focus on patient, surgeon, and radiologist preference are necessary. This review aims to present the rationale for the MELODY (NCT05559411) study and to enable standardization of outcome measures for future studies.
