Achieving the maximum yield of breast cancers detected by mammography has required certain changes in tissue handling and examination of the mammographically directed breast biopsy. This new radiographic technique, increased use of breast-conserving surgical approaches for the treatment of breast cancer, more enlightened and demanding patients, and increasing medical-legal exposure have all contributed to changes in the way surgical pathologists should process and sample breast biopsy specimens.
要实现乳腺钼靶检查所发现乳腺癌的最大检出率,需要在组织处理以及乳腺钼靶引导下的乳腺活检检查方面做出某些改变。这种新的放射成像技术、越来越多地采用保乳手术方法治疗乳腺癌、患者更加开明且要求更高,以及医疗法律风险的增加,所有这些都促使外科病理学家处理和取样乳腺活检标本的方式发生了变化。
