Breast Biopsy
When a lump or abnormal area is detected during screening, a biopsy can determine whether cells are cancerous. Advanced imaging technology - such as mammography or ultrasound - can be combined with minimally invasive techniques to obtain tissue samples. Merit Health Woman's Hospital offers digital stereotactic biopsies, and women can choose to be seated or lying down during the procedure for maximum comfort.
To schedule a mammogram or other screening exam, please call (601) 932-1000.
