Breast puncture under ultrasound guidance
Breast biopsy is a medical procedure in which a thin needle is used to take a tissue sample from the breast for subsequent laboratory analysis. The procedure is performed under ultrasound guidance, allowing the physician to accurately direct the needle to the desired location, even if the tumor or mass is small or difficult to detect by touch. Ultrasound helps to safely and precisely obtain samples from suspicious areas of the breast. This examination helps determine the nature of breast lesions, such as tumors, cystic formations, or inflammations.
Indications for breast biopsy:
• Presence of tumors or nodules in the breast detected during examination or ultrasound.
• Suspicion of breast cancer or benign formations.
• Uncertainty in diagnosis after mammography or ultrasound examination.
• Evaluation of changes in breast tissue, such as in mastitis or fibroadenoma.
Purpose of the procedure:
Breast biopsy helps to accurately determine whether a lesion is benign or malignant. This allows the physician to choose the appropriate treatment strategy, avoid unnecessary surgeries, and timely detect cancer at early stages if present. The procedure is minimally invasive and informative for diagnosis.
