Paraffin block radiography following breast biopsies: use of orthogonal views.
Paraffin block radiography has been shown to be useful in helping identify lesions in biopsy specimens of breast tissue. Use of an orthogonal view enables determination of the approximate depth of a lesion within a paraffin block. This simple technique further guarantees histologic evaluation of the area of radiographic concern.
