Image-Guided Breast Biopsy

Image-guided breast biopsy is a procedure where medical imaging tools like mammograms, ultrasound, or MRI are used to precisely locate and remove a small sample of breast tissue. This helps doctors evaluate suspicious areas, such as lumps or abnormalities seen on imaging tests, to determine if they are benign or cancerous. The imaging guides the needle during the procedure, ensuring accurate sampling while minimizing discomfort. It's a safe, effective way to diagnose breast issues quickly and accurately, often performed on an outpatient basis with minimal recovery time.
