Tompkins B, Rai U, Miller R, Sarle R
Urol Case Rep . 2024 Oct; 57:102859. PMID: 39444441
Definitive surgical treatment for prostate cancer continues to evolve with robotic prostatectomy being the preferred technique. This technique has led to decreased blood loss and transfusion rates. Although uncommon, this...

Lanahan C, Kelly B, Gadd M, Specht M, Brown C, Hughes K, et al.
Breast Cancer Res Treat . 2021 Feb; 187(1):145-153. PMID: 33611664
Purpose: Safe breast cancer lumpectomies require microscopically clear margins. Real-time margin assessment options are limited, and 20-40% of lumpectomies have positive margins requiring re-excision. The LUM Imaging System previously showed...

Smith B, Lanahan C, Specht M, Kelly B, Brown C, Strasfeld D, et al.
Ann Surg Oncol . 2020 Mar; 27(Suppl 3):967. PMID: 32170477
The article Feasibility Study of a Novel Protease-Activated Fluorescent Imaging System for Real-Time, Intraoperative Detection of Residual Breast Cancer in Breast Conserving Surgery, written by Barbara L. Smith et al.,...

Smith B, Lanahan C, Specht M, Kelly B, Brown C, Strasfeld D, et al.
Ann Surg Oncol . 2020 Jan; 27(6):1854-1861. PMID: 31898104
Background: Obtaining tumor-free margins is critical to prevent recurrence after lumpectomy for breast cancer. Unfortunately, current approaches leave positive margins that require second surgeries in 20-40% of patients. We assessed...

Smith B, Gadd M, Lanahan C, Rai U, Tang R, Rice-Stitt T, et al.
Breast Cancer Res Treat . 2018 Jun; 171(2):413-420. PMID: 29948401
Purpose: Obtaining tumor-free surgical margins is critical to prevent recurrence in breast-conserving surgery but it remains challenging. We assessed the LUM Imaging System for real-time, intraoperative detection of residual tumor....

Smith B, Tang R, Rai U, Plichta J, Colwell A, Gadd M, et al.
J Am Coll Surg . 2017 Jul; 225(3):361-365. PMID: 28728962
Background: Nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) has gained popularity for breast cancer treatment and prevention. There are limited data about long-term oncologic safety of this procedure. Study Design: We reviewed oncologic outcomes...

Merrill A, Buckley J, Tang R, Brachtel E, Rai U, Michaelson J, et al.
Breast J . 2016 Nov; 23(1):83-89. PMID: 27860134
Lumpectomy with microscopically clear margins is a safe and effective approach for surgical management of breast carcinoma. Margins are positive for tumor in 18-50% of lumpectomies, as it is not...

Plichta J, Rai U, Tang R, Coopey S, Buckley J, Gadd M, et al.
Ann Surg Oncol . 2016 Jul; 23(10):3212-20. PMID: 27406095
Background: Young age at breast cancer diagnosis has been associated with increased risk of recurrence and mortality. We reevaluated this assumption in a large, modern cohort of women diagnosed with...

Merrill A, Tang R, Plichta J, Rai U, Coopey S, McEvoy M, et al.
Ann Surg Oncol . 2016 May; 23(11):3453-3458. PMID: 27207096
Background: No consensus exists for clear margins for breast-conserving surgery for pure ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). We examined the implications of applying a "no ink on tumor" standard for...

Tang R, Coopey S, Merrill A, Rai U, Specht M, Gadd M, et al.
J Am Coll Surg . 2016 Apr; 222(6):1149-55. PMID: 27118712
Background: When a nipple margin of a nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) contains malignancy, current practice includes removal of the nipple or nipple areola complex (NAC). We evaluated rates and trends of...
