Lymph nodes around the area may also be checked. Your doctor will review the results of your biopsy with you at your next visit and talk to you about treatment if needed. There are different types of breast biopsies. Your doctor has ordered a: Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA) Core Needle Biopsy Stereotactic Biopsy Open Excisional Biopsy To Prepare You may be told to not eat food after midnight before the test.

Biopsia de seno Una biopsia es la extracción de pequeñas partes de tejido, las que luego se envían a un laboratorio para su análisis. Puede ser necesario realizar una biopsia cuando otros exámenes muestran algo en los senos que se debe examinar con más atención. Si existe un bulto, se puede extraer al mismo tiempo de realizar la biopsia. También se pueden revisar los ganglios linfáticos alrededor del área. En su próxima visita, el médico revisará los resultados de la biopsia con usted y le hablará sobre el tratamiento si se requiere. Existen diferentes tipos de biopsias de seno. Su médico solicitó una: Aspiración con aguja fina (FNA, por sus siglas en inglés) Biopsia por punción con aguja gruesa Biopsia estereotáctica Biopsia excisional abierta Preparación Puede que se le indique que no coma nada después de la medianoche anterior al examen. Podría ser necesario que un familiar o amigo la lleve a su casa después de la biopsia. Durante el examen Se le pedirá que se saque la ropa de la cintura hacia arriba y se ponga una bata del hospital.
