Diagnostic Tests

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.

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.
