"A minimally invasive biopsy method that uses either sterotactic mammography or ultrasound for precise positioning of a vacuum-assisted biopsy probe.NCI" . . . "A procedure in which a small sample of tissue is removed from the breast. An imaging device is used to guide a hollow probe connected to a vacuum device. The probe is inserted through a tiny cut made in numbed skin on the breast. The tissue sample is removed using gentle vacuum suction and a small rotating knife within the probe. Then the tissue sample is studied under a microscope to check for signs of disease. This procedure causes very little scarring and no stitches are needed.NCI-GLOSS" . .
