  • Title: How to perform breast biopsies.
    Author: Cady B.
    Journal: Surg Oncol Clin N Am; 1995 Jan; 4(1):47-66. PubMed ID: 7697459.
    Abstract:
    Current breast biopsy techniques should recognize the changing presentation and management of breast cancer. Nonpalpable lesions detected and localized by mammography are common, and the proportion of women suitable for and desirous of breast conservation is increasing. Careful evaluation of the features of the excised cancer and sophisticated decisions are to be emphasized, not spared, as there are a wide variety of suitable treatments available.
