Comparing it to open surgical biopsy, which is the most common biopsy method used today, Dr Susan Lim Mey Lee, a general surgeon from Mount Elizabeth hospital at Singapore said: "Mammotome has the benefit of leaving little or virtually no scar on the breast.This procedure takes less than an hour with no hospitalisation and women can usually resume their normal routines immediately after with only a small bandage to cover the incision.No stitches are required."She added: "The mammotome probe not only makes extraction of tissue samples easy, but also helps provide easy access to the biopsy site for better patient management and follow-up care.Moreover, this procedure can also reduce the risk of infection and complications which were seen earlier in the traditional method."
