Stormont Vail Health is introducing Magseed® technology for breast localization at its Flint Hills Campus in Junction City. This advanced alternative is designed to reduce stress for patients undergoing breast cancer surgery.

“We recently successfully performed our first breast cancer case using this advanced system. The patient reported an overwhelmingly positive experience, and we look forward to expanding access to this innovative care for more individuals in our community,” said Dr. Daniel Regier, General Surgeon at the Flint Hills Campus.

Unlike traditional wire localization, Magseed® uses a tiny magnetic marker that improves accuracy and comfort for patients. The seed can be placed at any time before surgery, giving patients greater flexibility.

This marker allows surgeons to take the most cosmetic approach to remove cancer and often means patients complete surgery in one operation. The result: fewer disruptions, better outcomes, and a more positive experience.
