How to Prepare for Your Ultrasound-Guided Breast Biopsy

Based on the results of your last breast ultrasound or mammogram, your physician has recommended a breast biopsy in order to obtain further information. A biopsy is a procedure in which a small sample of tissue is taken for further examination by the laboratory. There are different types of biopsies; this type is an ultrasound-guided biopsy.

During this procedure, small samples of tissue are removed from the breast using a hollow needle. The needle is precisely guided to the correct location using ultrasound.

Advantage of Ultrasound Biopsy Needle Guides:

• Reduces the number of attempts to reach a target
• Procedures are less traumatic for patients
• Improves needle placement accuracy
• Provides a predictable needle path, with the help of on-screen guidelines

Before using for the first time, perform needle path verification to verify system and needle guide relations. To avoid any injury to the patient, please observe the following:

1. Refer to system manual for proper procedure.

2. Before verifying, ensure all parts are in good condition.

3. Ensure the needle guide and the needle have been installed correctly.

4. Use a needle suitable for the biopsy and the needle guide.

5. Use proper needle length to reach target area.

6. Carefully insert the needle to avoid bending.

7. Use a straight, new, sterile needle for each verification procedure to help predict the needle's orientation accurately.

8. The guidelines are only used to indicate the expected path of the needle.

9. Do not use the needle guide if the needle does not follow the intended path.

10. The needle used for this needle path verification must not be used for the actual procedure
