What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Breasts With Successful Placement of the Implant Posterior to the Mammary Gland at 6 Weeks After Treatment

    Inclusion was made in steps in group of 4 subjects. The subjects were followed-up with MRI 1-5 days after the injection to document correct injection technique. Before the next group were treated, the Expert Group evaluated the 6-week follow-up results of the previous group. The injection procedure was, if necessary, changed in accordance with specifically pre-defined parameters.

    Measured: 6 weeks
