Access to these procedures is limited in the regional centres, this scheduling can require overnight stays away from home and can delay theatre which can increase patient distress. The Sentimag technology uses magnetism for localisation of preoperatively inserted Magseeds (for impalpable breast lesions) and Magtrace (for sentinel node biopsy), avoiding guidewire placement and nuclear medicine. This study evaluates the first 13 cases using this combined technique by a single specialist breast surgeon in a regional centre.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Thirteen consecutive patients were enrolled with ethics approval. Magseeds were placed under ultrasound guidance preoperatively, and Magtrace was injected at the time of pre\u2010operative consultation.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The median age of patients was 60 (range 27\u201378). The average distance from hospital was 81.63\u2009km (2.8\u2013238\u2009km). The average operating time was 1h54m (range 1\u2009h 17\u2009m\u20132\u2009h 39\u2009m) and the mean total journey time was 8h54m (range 6\u201323\u2009h). The earliest time\u2010out was 8:40\u2009am. Re\u2010excision rate was 23% (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u20093), however, in each re\u2010excision case the lesions were in the axilla, were small (&lt;15\u2009mm) and were in patients with dense breasts on mammography. There were no significant adverse outcomes.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>In this preliminary study Sentimag localisation appears to be safe and reliable when used in combination.
