Objective To evaluate and compare the diagnostic value of digital mammography-guided biopsy with mammography for early-stage breast cancer. Methods 68 of 156 foci(from 148 cases) with diameter≤2.0 cm from 2850 mammographic cases during Nov.2001 and Sep.2002,were urdestaken mammography-guided biopsy and then compared the coherence of the biopsy and mammographic results with the pathology. Results The obviously accuracy of mammography-guided biopsy is obviously superior to the mammography(P(0.05)). Conclusions Digital mammography-guided biopsy possesses great clinical practical value to the diagnosis of early stage breast cancer.
