At the recent British Breast Group 2018 meeting, Mr Daniel Leff, Professor Ara Darzi and Professor Zoltan Takats were all selected to present their work on the intelligent knife for breast cancer surgery. This research has lead to the development of the Cancer Research UK Funded REI-EXCISE Trial, which is looking at whether the intelligent knife can help surgeons know if they have removed all of the cancer during breast cancer surgery.
The team won the Sir Patrick Forrest Prize for the best scientific presentation at the meeting.
