Ultrasound-guided vacuum-assisted breast biopsy in the diagnosis of cancer recurrence at the surgical scar: a report of three cases

Ultrasound-guided vacuum-assisted biopsy is being increasingly used in the diagnosis of breast lesions. The advantages of vacuum-assisted biopsy over core needle biopsy include large sample and higher diagnostic accuracy. Indications for ultrasound-guided vacuum-assisted biopsy include suspicious calcifications visible on ultrasound, architectural distortion, and very subtle or insinuating lesions.
