Mammography with core needle biopsy for breast lesion

Objective To evaluate the clinical application of mammorgraphy with core needle biopsy in the diagnosis of breast lesions.Methods 36 cases of clinical nonpalpable breast lesions were detected with stereotactic needle core biopsy(SCNB) and 27 cases of ≥2 cm breast masses with direct core biopsy. Results The study showed that breast cancer was 20(31.7%), benign breast lesion 43(68.3%). The diagnostic accuracy, aspiration misplay and false negatigve were 93.6%, 3.2% and 3.2%, respectively. No false positive was found. Conclusion Mammorgaphy with core needle biopsy is a simple, less invasive and accurate localization procedure, very valuable in the diagnosis of nonpalpable lesions that only be visible on mammography.
