BreastScreen South Australia, Wayville, Australia
Cancer 99:357-64. 2003..Core biopsy is used if FNAB is not diagnostic. In the context of increased use of core biopsy at other centers, the authors reviewed their experience with the cytologic assessment of highly suspicious microcalcifications...

BreastScreen SA, Wayville, South Australia, Australia
Cancer 108:150-6. 2006..If core imprint cytology (CIC) of breast cores can be shown to be reliable in a significant proportion of screen-detected lesions, this technique may be of clinical value in such clinics...
