[Mammography/stereotactically controlled vacuum excisional biopsy. Interventional methods in breast diagnosis].
As well as in the complementary mamma diagnosis (clinical examination, mammography, sonography) including the dynamic MRI and the mammography screening projects the interventional methods like mammographically/stereotactically guided vacuumbiopsy/excisional biopsy are established methods to avoid unnecessary open operations and they are integrated in the clinical routine. By using strict criterias it is a way to improve the specificity and the negative predictive value in the mamma diagnosis. In addition the interventional methods requires less costs, less time and reduces the morbidity in comparison to an open operation.
