What does getting an ultrasound-guided breast biopsy done on my left breast mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Something on mammo: Your mammogram or clinical exam showed something that requires further investigation. The biopsy will obtain tissue for examination. Once the tissue is examined your physician will discuss the results with you. Be calm and patient. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!
