About

A prospective clinical study investigating the use of the Histolog Scanner for intraoperative assessment of surgical margins in patients undergoing breast-conserving surgery for histologically confirmed breast cancer. The Histolog Scanner operates on the principle of confocal microscopy and enables non-destructive evaluation of specimen margins. The specimen will subsequently be sent for standard histopathological assessment; therefore, the use of this method does not pose any risk to the patient, as the diagnostic and therapeutic pathway for breast cancer will not be altered.
