The high level of SDF-1 expression suggests that there is a high likelihood of node metastasis, local recurrence and death from breast cancer in these patients.
On the other hand, Yu proposed a supervised multiscale segmentation method in which every pixel becomes a node, and the likelihood of two nodes belonging together is interpreted by a weight attached to the edge linking these two pixel nodes [25].
10– 12 The variable contribution of perforating lymphatics along the branches of the internal mammary artery to lymphatic drainage of the breast cannot be predicted clinically and therefore the likelihood of sentinel nodes being located along the internal mammary artery is also unpredictable.
In addition, it reduces the likelihood of the node having the NWLB problem with its neighboring nodes while they are moving.
Pelvic radiotherapy or lymphadenectomy might be especially important for patients with positive peritoneal cytology, as it has been shown by Morrow et al (1991) that the presence of positive peritoneal cytology increases the risk of para-aortic lymph node invasion (15 vs 4%), and by inference increases the likelihood of pelvic node involvement.
Tumour size is theoretically associated with the increased likelihood of lymph node invasion in breast cancer.
But the likelihood of lymph node metastasis for cancer with muscularis mucosae (MM) invasion is almost 10%.
Thus, loss of miR-320 expression may be associated with a higher likelihood of lymph node involvement and a more aggressive metastatic phenotype.

However, it is widely accepted that loss of differentiation by increasing grading reflects likelihood of lymph node metastasis and reoccurrence after surgical intervention (Chung et al, 1982).
