Traditional whole slide imaging for telepathology for breast cases has been utilized for rapid breast care service.2…

Background: High expression of HER2 receptor in Immunohistochemistry (IHC) sections or amplification of its gene in In Situ Hybridization (ISH) assays define a subset of breast cancers that have an aggressive natural history but respond to treatments blocking HER2. In contrast, patients with lower HER2 expression, not meeting the criteria for clinical positivity, are currently treated similarly…

However blue dye risks a range of adverse reactions. Since 2010, for clinically node negative disease, we have only used blue dye if there is no clear isotope signal at surgery.
