Abstract

This article explores various techniques and tips for performing successful percutaneous biopsies of the breast and axillary lymph nodes using different imaging modalities. The discussion includes detailed image guidance on ultrasound-guided, stereotactic/tomosynthesis-guided, and MRI-guided biopsies. Advice for draining fluid collections in the breast is also reviewed. Key findings include the comparative effectiveness of different imaging techniques and practical advice for improving procedural outcomes. This information is particularly relevant for radiologists involved in diagnostic and interventional breast care. Recommendations for optimizing biopsy procedures and managing complications are also presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
