A change in your breast, such as an abnormality detected by a mammogram or a lump found by you or your doctor will often require a biopsy. Fortunately 80% of biopsies result in a benign diagnosis.

At Lawrence Hospital Center, a new Stereotactic Breast Biopsy Room uses the latest, state-of-the-art Mammotome Breast Biopsy System, a minimally invasive, image guided procedure. Your physician can locate breast abnormalities with one small incision and obtain multiple tissue samples for diagnosis. Unlike other biopsy methods, this procedure can be performed in less than one hour under a local anesthetic, requires no sutures and minimizes discomfort to you.

Dr. Helen Pass, M.D. and the support staff at Lawrence Hospital Center will help you get through the different stages of breast cancer. You can rely on their skill and experience to give you the treatment you need. Call Dr. Pass today and find out what she can do for you.
