| Abstract | All the patients with a non-operative diagnosis of invasive breast cancer should have ipsilateral axillary ultrasound performed, preferably at the time of initial assessment. If this was not performed initially, it should be done as soon as possible following core biopsy diagnosis of the breast cancer. The number and morphology of any abnormal nodes should be documented1. No national guidelines are available to give the utility of FNA versus biopsy of axillary nodes. They are regarded as equal, however, we had a couple of difficult experiences in reporting of FNA results, and therefore we decided to do an audit while comparing the two techniques by keeping the histology as gold standard. |
