The aim of this study was to assess the sentinel lymph node (SLN) detection rate and accuracy of 99m Tc-labeled sodium phytate and stannous chloride ( 99m Tc-PHY) injection versus 99m Tc-labeled sulfur colloid ( 99m Tc-SC) injection in sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) in patients with early stage breast cancer.
