Breast Biopsy

You’ve heard the saying that information is power—but it can also provide peace of mind.  Being told that you have to return to the breast center for a diagnostic exam, such as a breast biopsy, can be stressful.  But knowing the facts and what to expect can help to alleviate any concerns you might have.

A breast biopsy is a procedure during which a physician removes breast tissue samples from an area that appears abnormal.  This tissue is then evaluated by a pathologist to determine if the cells are cancerous or benign.  At the breast center, we offer several types of breast biopsies using different imaging techniques.  For information about each procedure, please click on the links below.
