Ultrasound-guided Breast Biopsy in the Breast Health Clinic [English] Permalink Public

You need a biopsy if you have a lump or other change in your breast, or if you have a recent mammogram or ultrasound showing a change in your breast tissue. Many tissue changes are harmless, but we want to make sure the change is normal. The only way to be sure your breast is healthy is to remove a small piece of tissue, called a biopsy (sounds like bye-op-see). This pamphlet gives you information on where and when the biopsy is done, how to prepare, what to expect, how to care for yourself afterwards, and when to get help. (English) Colour
