Use of 99mTc Labeled-Tilmanocept versus 99mTc Labeled-Sulfur Colloid in Lymphoscintigraphy: Sentinel Lymph Node Identification and Patient Reported Pain.

Conclusion: Filtered 99mTc labeled-Sulfur Colloid use in lymphoscintigraphy is an acceptable alternative to 99mTc labeled-Tilmanocept for SLN detection in breast cancer, based on filtered 99mTc labeled-Sulfur Colloid's similar intraoperative SLN identification and comparative pain scores.
