Brief Summary: This randomized clinical trial studies two different tests that are currently being used to detect the spread of breast cancer to the lymph nodes under the arm in candidates for breast conservation therapy. The two tests are sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) and axillary ultrasound. The current standard of care is sentinel lymph node biopsy, which is a surgical procedure. Axillary ultrasound (AUS) may be just as good as SLNB for detecting the spread of cancer but without the surgical risks.
Detailed Description: In this prospective randomized non-inferiority study we aim to determine the utility of axillary ultrasound (AUS) as a pre-operative staging modality for patients with clinically node-negative invasive breast cancer with the hope that it will be a minimally invasive replacement for SLNB.
