Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study to present the results of Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) guided cutting needle biopsy procedures of suspicious breast lesions that can be solely detected on Magnetic resonance (MR) examination. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study included 48 patients with 48 lesions which were solely be observed in breast MRI, indistinguishable in ultrasonography and mammography, for MR guided vacuum-assisted cutting needle biopsy and 42 patients with 42 lesions for MR guided cutting needle biopsy for the lesions of the same nature. MR imaging was performed using a 1.5-Tesla MRI device. Acquired MR images were determined and biopsy protocol was performed using computer-aided diagnosis system on the workstation. Vacuum biopsies were performed using 10 G or 12 G automatic biopsy systems, cutting needle biopsy procedures were performed using fully automated 12 G biopsy needle. RESULTS All biopsy procedures were finalized successfully without major complications. The lesions were 54 mass (60%), 28 were non-mass contrast enhancement (31%) and 8 were foci (9%) in the MR examination. Histopathological evaluation revealed 18 malignant (invasive, in-situ ductal carcinoma and lobular carcinoma), 66 benign (apocrine metaplasia, fibrosis, fibroadenomatoid lesion, sclerosing adenosis, fibrocystic disease and mild-to-severe epithelial proliferation) and 6 high-risk (atypical ductal hyperplasia, intraductal papilloma, radial scar) lesions. CONCLUSION Magnetic resonance guided vacuum and cutting needle biopsy methods are successful methods fort he evaluation of solely MRI detected suspicious breast lesions. There are several advantages relative to each other in both methods.

Abstract
Stereotactic X-ray mammography (SM) and ultrasound (US) guidance are both commonly used for breast biopsy. While SM provides three-dimensional (3D) targeting information and US provides real-time guidance, both have limitations. SM is a long and uncomfortable procedure and the US guided procedure is inherently two dimensional (2D), requiring a skilled physician for both safety and accuracy. The authors developed a 3D US-guided biopsy system to be integrated with, and to supplement SM imaging. Their goal is to be able to biopsy a larger percentage of suspicious masses using US, by clarifying ambiguous structures with SM imaging. Features from SM and US guided biopsy were combined, including breast stabilization, a confined needle trajectory, and dual modality imaging. The 3D US guided biopsy system uses a 7.5 MHz breast probe and is mounted on an upright SM machine for preprocedural imaging. Intraprocedural targeting and guidance was achieved with real-time 2D and near real-time 3D US imaging. Postbiopsy 3D US imaging allowed for confirmation that the needle was penetrating the target. The authors evaluated 3D US-guided biopsy accuracy of their system using test phantoms. To use mammographic imaging information, they registered the SM and 3D US coordinate systems. The 3D positions of targets identified in the SM images were determined with a target localization error (TLE) of 0.49 mm. The z component (x-ray tube to image) of the TLE dominated with a TLEz of 0.47 mm. The SM system was then registered to 3D US, with a fiducial registration error (FRE) and target registration error (TRE) of 0.82 and 0.92 mm, respectively. Analysis of the FRE and TRE components showed that these errors were dominated by inaccuracies in the z component with a FREz of 0.76 mm and a TREz of 0.85 mm. A stereotactic mammography and 3D US guided breast biopsy system should include breast compression for stability and safety and dual modality imaging for target localization. The system will provide preprocedural x-ray mammography information in the form of SM imaging along with real-time US imaging for needle guidance to a target. 3D US imaging will also be available for targeting, guidance, and biopsy verification immediately postbiopsy.

Abstract
Stereotactic X-ray mammography (SM) and ultrasound (US) guidance are commonly used techniques for breast biopsy. While SM provides 3D targeting information and US provides real-time guidance, both techniques have limitations. SM is a long and uncomfortable procedure and the US guided procedure is inherently 2D, requiring a skilled physician for both safety and accuracy. We have developed a 3D US-guided biopsy system to integrate with SM. The dual modality breast biopsy system combines the advantages of both approaches with 3D US and SM targeting, near real-time 3D and real-time 2D US guidance, breast stabilisation and a confined needle trajectory. Our goal is to be able to biopsy a larger percentage of suspicious masses using ultrasound, by clarifying ambiguous structures with mammographic imaging. Using breast phantoms, we have shown that our ultrasound guided biopsy system was capable of targeting artificial lesions that were 3.2 mm in diameter, with a 96% success rate. Through this study, we also demonstrated that our system was equivalent to current clinical practice, for an in vitro biopsy task. Metal beads in known relative positions allowed us to determine the geometry of the SM system, so that stereotactic mammography could be registered to 3D US images. The target registration error was found to be 1.6 mm. This error was dominated by positioning error in the vertical direction (perpendicular to the film surface). As an adjunct to SM, we propose that 3D US could provide more complete imaging information for target identification and real-time monitoring of needle insertion, as well as providing a means for rapid confirmation of biopsy success.

Abstract
We have designed a prototype three-dimensional ultrasound guidance (3D USB) apparatus to improve the breast biopsy procedure. Features from stereotactic mammography and free-hand US-guided biopsy have been combined with 3D US imaging. This breast biopsy apparatus accurately guides a needle into position for the sampling of target tissue. We have evaluated this apparatus in three stages. First, by testing the placement accuracy of a needle in a tissue mimicking phantom. Second, with tissue mimicking phantoms that had embedded lesions for biopsy. Finally, by comparison to free-hand US-guided biopsy, using chicken breast phantoms. The first two stages of evaluation quantified the mechanical biases in the 3D USB apparatus. Compensating for these, a 96% success rate in targeting 3.2 mm "lesions" in chicken breast phantoms was achieved when using the 3D USB apparatus. The expert radiologists performing biopsies with free-hand US guidance achieved a 94.5% success rate. This has proven an equivalence between our apparatus, operated by non-experts, and free-hand biopsy performed by expert radiologists, for 3.2 mm lesions in vitro, with a 95% confidence.

Abstract
The diagnosis of atypical intraductal epithelial hyperplasia (AIDH) constitutes 6.3% of the breast core biopsies performed at our institution. Seventy-nine cases that were diagnosed as AIDH on core biopsy and went through excisional biopsy were included. Sixty-four biopsies were performed by an image-guided 11-gauge vacuum device, 11 under sonographic guidance using 14-gauge needles and 4 by a sonographically guided 11-gauge vacuum device. The histopathology of the core biopsies and the surgical excisions were reviewed. Immunohistochemistry was performed on the consecutive sections of core biopsy specimens using high molecular weight cytokeratin (HMW-CK) (DAKO-Cytokeratin, 34betaE12). At interpretation of the stain, intensity and percentage of positive cells were taken into account. The immunoprofiles of AIDH were categorized into four groups showing negative (i.e., no staining) or low-, moderate-, high-, and very high-intensity staining. Surgical excision of the 79 lesions revealed carcinoma in only 3 cases (4%)-two infiltrating carcinomas and one intraductal carcinoma-residual AIDH in 44 cases (56%), and epithelial hyperplasia or other benign lesions without atypia in 32 cases (40%). The HMW-CK stain was performed retrospectively on all of the core biopsies and 66 of them contained residual areas with AIDH for staining. Forty-nine (74%) were CK negative or stained with low intensity, but 17 cases (26%) had a moderate- to high-intensity stain. Our study showed a lower incidence of carcinoma on surgical excision following core biopsy for AIDH than other studies. The HMW-CK stain helped to characterize the nature of the intraductal proliferation and to confirm the presence of atypia, as has been previously reported, but frequently was inconclusive. The low incidence of carcinoma brings into question the need for surgical excision of all cases of AIDH diagnosed by core biopsy.

Abstract
Mammography has become a major, if not the best available, diagnostic tool for the early detection of breast cancer. Screening has progressed substantially from the anecdotes of physicians in the early 1970s, that is, the assumption that "if I can't feel it, it's not there." Although controversy continues regarding the earliest age at which screening mammography truly lowers the death rate from breast cancer, the fact that mammography detects breast cancer years before it might be discovered as a mass in the breast cannot be challenged. Mammographic techniques have improved to the point at which smaller and smaller areas of suspicion can be identified, and mammographers have gained greater experience in the interpretation of these minute radiographic abnormalities. The ability to detect these changes has inevitably led to an increase in procedures designed to explain them. The incurred costs, both emotional and economic, of patient recalls for positive mammographic findings are considerable. Regardless of whether the physician practices medicine as a patient advocate or exercises politically correct and cost-effective mandates, the management of nonpalpable breast lesions requires the correlation of cognitive and procedural skills and cooperation among physicians and reflects the technical achievements of contemporary medicine.

Abstract
Image-guided breast biopsy has become an attractive alternative to wire-localized excisional biopsy to evaluate women with nonpalpable abnormalities detected by breast imaging. We have organized a database from our institution that includes over 3,500 procedures. We have reviewed our institutional results and the literature pertaining to image-guided breast biopsy. Discussed in this review are the indications and contraindications for image-guided biopsy, common techniques employed, accuracy based on pathology, reimbursement issues, and the multidisciplinary approach used at our institution. The results of our review affirm our position that image-guided breast biopsy is the preferred technique to evaluate women with nonpalpable breast imaging abnormalities.
