A prospective randomized study of two gauges of Biopty-cut needle in diagnosis of early breast cancer
BREAST(1995)
Abstract
122 patients with breast masses suspicious of malignancy were randomly allocated to core needle biopsy using 14 or 18 gauge needles in a Biopty-cut system. Sensitivity was 98% for the 14 gauge and 93% for the 18 gauge needles. Although the size of the needle did not significantly affect the results, the 14 gauge needle is more versatile and recommended for breast lesions.
