The MAMMOTOME Biopsy System

The MAMMOTOME Biopsy System is a minimally invasive device that helps doctors accurately diagnose breast cancer in its earliest stages. The image-guided breast biopsy procedure can be performed under local anesthetic in about an hour.

First marketed in 1995, the MAMMOTOME System has been extremely well received by both the medical community and patients. Over 2 million procedures have been performed using the MAMMOTOME. The new MAMMOTOME EX, used under ultrasound guidance, now enables doctors to manage benign lesions such as fibroadenomas without the need for open surgery.
