Large-core needle biopsy versus fine-needle aspiration biopsy in solid breast lesions: comparison of costs and diagnostic value

Acta Radiologica, 2008
Background: In the current climate of budget constraints and personnel shortages, hospitals are required to demonstrate ever-greater cost effectiveness. In the diagnosis of breast lesions, it is useful to compare the costs and benefits of fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) and core-needle biopsy (CNB).

The utility of ultrasonographically guided large‐core needle biopsy: results from 500 consecutive breast biopsies.

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, 2001
Five hundred ultrasonographically guided large‐core needle breast biopsies of solid masses were performed in 446 women. Histopathologic results were correlated with imaging findings. Ultrasonographically guided large‐core needle biopsy resulted in diagnosis of malignancy (n = 124) or severe atypical ductal hyperplasia (n = 4) in 128 lesions (26%).

The Use of Carbon Marking after Stereotactic Large-Core-Needle Breast Biopsy

Radiology, 2001
To investigate the use of activated charcoal to mark the biopsy site and needle track after large-core-needle breast biopsy.Three hundred seventy-six consecutive patients (with 383 lesions) were referred for stereotactic breast biopsy. Two hundred forty-seven lesions were carbon marked when the need for surgery was likely.

Nonpalpable breast lesions: correlation of stereotaxic large-core needle biopsy and surgical biopsy results.

Radiology, 1993
One hundred women, each with a single nonpalpable breast lesion evident at mammography, underwent computer-guided sterotaxic 14-gauge needle biopsy followed by hook-wire localization and open surgical biopsy. Lesions were not less than 5 mm in diameter. Core biopsy yielded essentially correct findings in 96 cases and in 35 of 36 cancers.

Lessons from mammographic-histopathologic correlation of large-core needle breast biopsy.

RadioGraphics, 1996
A thorough understanding of the limitations of sampling and histopathologic issues affecting lesion management is critical to successful large-core (14-gauge) needle breast biopsy. The most common problems are differentiating usual hyperplasia, atypical hyperplasia, and carcinoma in situ; satisfactory sampling of microcalcifications, often present in ...

Experience in large-core needle biopsy in the diagnosis of 1431 breast lesions

Medical Oncology, 2010
Large-core needle biopsy (LCNB) is a common diagnostic tool used for breast lesions biopsy under free-hand or ultrasound guidance. In this paper, we have retrospectively studied on 1,431 patients who require histopathological diagnosis of breast lesions by LCNB in Tianjin Cancer Hospital from January 2008 to April 2009.

Fibrous Nodules Found at Large-Core Needle Biopsy of the Breast: Imaging Features

Radiology, 1999
To describe the imaging and histologic features of large-core needle biopsy (LCNB) specimens of fibrous nodules.Of 853 breast masses in which LCNB was performed, 38 (4%) revealed histologic findings of fibrous nodules. Repeat biopsy was performed in 16 lesions (surgical excision, 13 lesions; repeat LCNB, three lesions).

Mammographic findings after stereotaxic biopsy of the breast performed with large-core needles.

Radiology, 1994
To evaluate changes seen on mammograms obtained after large-core stereotaxic biopsy of the breast.Twenty-seven patients underwent stereotaxic breast biopsy performed with large-core, 14-gauge needles. At least five core samples were obtained from each lesion.

Implementation of image‐guided large‐core needle biopsy of the breast on a limited budget

Australasian Radiology, 1998
SUMMARYImage‐guided large‐core needle biopsy (LCNB) of the breast is becoming widely accepted as an accurate, minimally invasive and economical way to obtain a tissue diagnosis of breast lesions. However, much of this work has been done with expensive dedicated equipment, often favouring stereotaxic guidance.

Impact of stereotactic large-core needle biopsy on diagnosis and surgical treatment of non-palpable breast cancer

European Journal of Surgical Oncology (EJSO), 2001
Stereotactic large-core needle biopsy is increasingly replacing needle-localized breast biopsy for the diagnosis of nonpalpable breast disease. In this prospective study, the impact of the introduction of this technique on diagnosis and surgical treatment of nonpalpable breast cancer was assessed in two hospitals in The Netherlands.A total of 84 ...
