Excerpt

In selected patients, our Unit has recently moved from handheld ultrasound-guided vacuum-assisted core biopsy (VACB) piecemeal acquisition of tissue to the handheld Intact Breast Lesion Excision System (Intact). Intact removes a single piece of tissue, potentially allowing radiologists to excise the entire lesion as well as allowing pathologists to visualise lesion architecture more easily and to calculate margins. We evaluated our early experience of excising benign or likely benign breast lesions using the 20 mm Intact. …
