Our goal is to provide patients with an accurate diagnosis
in the most effective, yet least invasive way. We strive to
provide this diagnosis in a timely manner and in the most
supportive environment possible.
Duke radiologists with specialized training
in breast imaging use a variety of techniques to detect and
diagnose breast cancer, including mammograms, breast
ultrasound, and MRI.
Breast imaging radiologists are skilled in all forms of
minimally invasive biopsy techniques including needle core
biopsies using stereotactic and ultrasound guidance (with
mammatome capability when appropriate) and pre-surgical wire
localizations.
For many women, stereotactic needle biopsy can spare them a
more uncomfortable and expensive surgical biopsy. It can also
allow them to start their treatment sooner.
