20% of women getting lumpectomies need a second surgery, but this risk can be lowered

The Applications of 3D Tomosynthesis Technology for the Pathologists’ Assistant
3D Tomosynthesis is currently on track to replace intraoperative specimen processing for segmental mastectomies. This also evaluates how 3D tomosynthesis may impact pathologic evaluation of breast cancer specimens and the role of Pathologists’ Assistants.
