Large Core Biopsy

Large core breast biopsy (ABBI - Advanced Breast Biopsy Instrumentation) is a surgical technique to remove the small suspicious tissue from the breast fully that involves removing an entire intact breast lesion (abnormality) under Stereotactic Mammography Imaging guidance. ABBI can remove 5 to 20 millimeters (mm) of breast tissue.    

Before the biopsy test, the breast is cleaned and local anesthesia is injected to anaesthetize the area and a Narrow Core needle with a cutting device is inserted into the breast. The breast tissue is removed with the looped wire and taken to pathology laboratory for diagnosis.
