A mammographic stereotactic biopsy system is a specialized medical device used in breast imaging to guide precise needle biopsies of suspicious lesions detected on mammograms. It combines imaging technology with a biopsy unit to help pathologists obtain tissue samples for accurate cancer diagnosis or further evaluation.
These systems are typically regulated as high-risk medical devices due to their direct interaction with human tissue and critical role in cancer detection. They may be sold as standalone units or integrated with existing mammography equipment, depending on the manufacturer’s design and market requirements.
