Putnam Hospital Center's Rojas Reflects On New Study On Breast Biopsies Putnam Hospital Center's Rojas Reflects On New Study On Breast Biopsies
Putnam Hospital Center's Rojas Reflects On New Study On Breast Biopsies PUTNAM COUNTY, N.Y. -- Breast biopsies were in the news this week.  A recent article in the New York Times (go here for story) reports on a new study from The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) that says breast biopsies are good at telling the difference between healthy tissue and cancer, but less reliable for identifying more subtle abnormalities.
