Image-guided Microinvasive Percutaneous Treatment of Breast Lesions: Where Do We Stand?

Treatment of breast lesions has evolved toward the use of less-invasive or minimally invasive techniques. Minimally invasive treatments destroy focal groups of cells without surgery; hence, less anesthesia is required, better cosmetic outcomes are achieved because of minimal (if any) scarring, and recovery times are shorter. These techniques include cryoablation, radiofrequency ablation, microwave ablation, high-intensity focused US, laser...
