This is a multi-center, randomized, two-arm study designed to measure the effectiveness of the SELENE system in reducing the number of unaddressed positive margins in breast lumpectomy procedures when used in addition to standard intraoperative margin assessment.

SELENE imaging of all margins, with record of each margin assessment and an opportunity to excise tissue from the lumpectomy cavity post-imaging. The new margin will be imaged with SELENE and the surgeon will record the assessment and may take additional tissue (up to a maximum of six total shaves, including up to two shaves in each orientation) or record why no further tissue may be taken.

Participants With at Least One Unaddressed Positive Margin
This endpoint is a within-subject comparison of the occurrence of at least one unaddressed positive margin following standard of care (SOC) alone versus after the adjunctive use of the device (SOC + Device). An "unaddressed margin" is an actionable margin where the surgeon could have excised additional tissue but which is determined to be positive by pathology. Positive margin criteria follow NCCN and SSO/ASTRO guidelines: "ink on tumor" for invasive carcinoma and \< 2 mm for DCIS.
Time frame: Index Surgery (Baseline timepoint for intraoperative margin assessment) until receipt of final ground truth histopathology report (Approximately 3-7 days post Index Surgery)
The Number of Unaddressed Positive Margins Per Subject.
This measure is a within-subject comparison of the mean number of unaddressed positive margins determined through histopathology following SOC treatment alone versus SOC + Device use. An "unaddressed margin" is defined as a final margin where further tissue could have been excised but which was determined to be positive by pathology.
Time frame: Index Surgery (Baseline timepoint for intraoperative margin assessment) until receipt of final ground truth histopathology report (Approximately 3-7 days post Index Surgery)
False Positive Shaves Per Subject
A within-subject comparison of the number of "false-positive" shaves, defined as any shave where pathology reported no presence of cancer (cancer-free), taken during SOC alone vs. the supplemental use of the Device.
Time frame: Index Surgery (Baseline timepoint for intraoperative margin assessment) until receipt of final ground truth histopathology report (Approximately 3-7 days post Index Surgery)
Margin-level Effectiveness (National Guidelines)
According to the joint consensus guidelines by the Society of Surgical Oncology (SSO) and the American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO), a positive margin for invasive carcinoma is defined as "ink on tumor" (1). For ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), including DCIS with microinvasion (DCISM), the NCCN defines a positive margin as \<2 mm and DCIS with microinvasion is further characterized as an invasive focus ≤1 mm in size) (2). For cases involving invasive carcinoma with a DCIS component, the SSO/ASTRO Guidelines apply the same definition of a positive margin-"ink on tumor"-to both invasive carcinoma and DCIS. Similarly, for participants who have undergone neo-adjuvant therapy, the "ink on tumor" definition is used for both invasive carcinoma and DCIS

Margin-level Effectiveness (National Guidelines) (Continued)
A post-hoc analysis was conducted to assess accuracy as an additional measure of margin-level effectiveness for clinical decisions aided by the B-Series, with the following definition in the Full Analysis Set based on terms as defined in SAP Table 1b, where T=true, F=false, M=missing, P=positive, and N=negative. Clinical decision accuracy = (TP+TN)/(TP+TN+FN+FP+MP+MN). This analysis does not reflect true (per margin) sensitivity or specificity of device standalone performance but instead measures clinical decisions aided with the Device after SOC was completed.
