I would like to know what is commonly done across our group when it comes to imaging that is done prior to having a biopsy for breast cancer. Basically I would like to know how many people end up having a biopsy based on mammographic calcifications alone, without any palpable mass, ultrasound, or MRI prior to biopsy.
