Vacuum-Assisted Biopsy

The vacuum-assisted (7-10G), minimal invasive biopsy (VAB), either guided by ultrasound, or by mammography (stereotaxy) during the second trial visit (V2) will be performed once. In analogy to the German S3 guideline on primary breast cancer management we recommend to take at least 12 biopsies with 10G needles or less in case of larger needle sizes.
