Abbreviations: MMP, MRI-guided marker placement; MWL, mammographic-guided wire localization; RSL, radioactive seed localization.
aNot all patients had pathology available prior to localization.
bAll patients with bracketing who underwent a single lumpectomy were reported as one pathology site, and two patients in the MWL group were reported with two pathology sites, for a total of 36 final pathology results.
