Your doctor has recommended that you undergo a breast biopsy procedure - or lumpectomy. But what does that actually mean?

Biopsy is a general term which simply means "the removal of tissue for microscopic examination."

Your doctor intends to remove tissue from the breast - not because you're necessarily ill - but because breast biopsy is a very accurate method for analyzing breast tissue.

Because it provides such accurate diagnostic information, breast biopsy is an important diagnostic tool in the fight against breast cancer.

  • VERY GOOD

  • This is the most important video I have ever seen on the Internet. Many women refuse biopsies because they believe that 80% are benign. What doctors don't tell them is that it's mainly the round type (cysts that are benign). If doctors told them that the star-shaped ones were especially dangerous they could save many lives!
