When a mammogram alone isn't enough, Saint Francis Health System offers several different advanced diagnostic options.
Breast Health Diagnostics
Breast Biopsy
This procedure removes a sample of breast tissue to determine if it is malignant or benign. Individual circumstances determine whether a surgical or needle biopsy is performed.

Breast MRI
A screening MRI is recommended along with a yearly mammogram for certain women at high risk for breast cancer. For a patient already diagnosed with cancer, the breast MRI will improve surgical planning. The MRI will give the surgeon an idea of the true size of the tumor and will allow the surgeon to look for additional cancers in the breasts.
