Abstract
The purpose of this study was to describe the application of digital mammography-guided skin marking as a localization technique for suspicious microcalcifications for sonographically guided biopsy. Digital mammography-guided skin marking can be applied to identify and localize suspicious microcalcifications at breast sonography. This technique has the potential to be an alternative to stereotactic guidance when the stereotactic biopsy is unavailable or unsuccessful.
