Title: Stereotactically guided needle biopsy of the breast for nonpalpable lesions. Author: Harolds JA. Journal: J Okla State Med Assoc; 1993 Dec; 86(12):604-12. PubMed ID: 8126588.

This article is a review of the literature, a report of a case, and a description of the technique. This procedure, when performed with a large core biopsy needle, appears to be about as accurate as surgical biopsy.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
