BACKGROUND: Stereotactic breast biopsy has been developed as a less invasive means of performing biopsy for mammographic abnormalities. METHODS: From July 1994 through June 1995, 103 women with mammographic abnormalities requiring biopsy were prospectively evaluated. RESULTS: Fifty-one women had open biop...
All 13 invited sites participated and used the same equipment (Selenia Dimensions, Hologic), the only FDA-approved device at the time.6 Data Collection Each participating institution provided aggregate data for all screening examinations, additional imaging studies, and relevant biopsy results.

Tumor initiating cells represent only 1–2% of the total cell mass of a tumor biopsy; nevertheless, they can reproduce the whole tumor populations upon transplantation into nude mice (Al-Hajj et al., 2003; Ginestier et al., 2007). These cells proliferate very slowly and a distinctive ...
Results: 174 eligible women underwent breast MRI between 2 and 51 days (mean 17, median 16) post diagnostic breast needle biopsy. Only 22% (38/174) women had one (26), two (11) or more (1) ipsilateral prominent axillary lymph nodes and normal contralateral axilla on MRI (mean time to...

When it was all over, I was told to come back in four hours for the results, which is nothing short of revolutionary. Thanks to a $12.5 million donation from Emmanuelle Gattuso and family, women can get biopsy results same day. I live downtown. I went home. I poured a glass of ...
Overall, CNB is the more reliable biopsy method for sonographically-visible lesions; where FNAC is used as the first-line test, inadequate or inconclusive FNAC can be largely resolved by using repeat sampling with CNB.Beniamino BrancatoEmanuele Crocetti...
solid lumps with some clear margins, palpable complex cysts, palpable abscess, solid mass with irregular shape and infiltrating margin, and newly emerging clustered, tiny, polygonal calcifications, and biopsy should be considered; BI-RADS category 5 = highly suggestive of malignancy and appropriat...
Women were asked to compare the risk of breast density with 5 other breast cancer risk factors (having a first-degree relative with breast cancer, being overweight or obese, having more than 1 alcoholic drink per day, never having children, or having a prior breast biopsy). A review of ...
Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) of the breast is a non-obligate precursor of Invasive Ductal Carcinoma (IDC) and thus the identification of features that may predict DCIS progression would be of potential clinical value. Experimental mouse models can be
