What is an Image-Guided Breast Biopsy?

A breast biopsy is done to take small tissue samples from a lump or shadow in your breast. We use imaging equipment, like ultrasound, mammogram, or MRI, to find the exact spot. First, we clean the skin and inject a local medicine to numb the area. Then, a doctor inserts a hollow needle through a tiny skin nick and removes several small tissue samples. These samples are sent to a lab to be examined under a microscope. Before finishing, the doctor will place a tiny metal clip at the biopsy spot. This clip acts as a marker so we can easily find the area on future mammograms. The clip is very safe and does not cause any problems.

Risks of the Procedure

Bleeding and Hematoma: You may experience bleeding or a collection of blood under the skin, called a hematoma. This usually goes away on its own.

Bruising and Pain: It is normal to have some bruising and mild soreness in your breast after the numbing medicine wears off.

Infection: There is a very small risk of introducing bacteria into the breast tissue, which could require antibiotics.

Chest Wall Puncture: In very rare cases, the needle could go too deep and puncture the chest wall, causing a collapsed lung.

Marker Migration: The tiny metal clip marker might shift slightly from the exact biopsy site, but this is uncommon.

Other Options Available to You

Surgical Biopsy: You can choose to have a surgeon remove the tissue in an operating room under general anesthesia.

Observation: You can choose to watch the area with regular mammograms and ultrasound checks every six months, but this will delay finding out if it is cancer.

Post-Procedure Care Instructions (Optional)

Ice Pack: Put an ice pack over the dressing for 20 minutes at a time to reduce swelling and bruising.

Pain Relief: Use acetaminophen for pain. Do not take aspirin or ibuprofen for 24 hours because they can increase bleeding.

Activity: Avoid heavy lifting, vigorous exercise, or bouncing activities for 24 to 48 hours after your biopsy.
