Abstract
The preoperative triangulation and localization of some occult breast lesions can be complicated if the lesion is located deep in the breast. Based on the authors' experience of 1,400 localization procedures, standard breast positions were modified to help locate lesions that were difficult to see in two projections. Standard compression plates were also modified, allowing placement of fenestrations over deep lesions--especially those in the axillary tail of the breast--to facilitate safe, accurate localization.
