Hi do all breast biopsies go through a MDT meeting or just the cancer ones thank you.

Hi,

I'm pretty sure they all do. I've had a couple of breast biopsies and mine went to MDT and they were a benign condition. X

Hello and thank you for your post,

Not all biopsies discussed at the MultiDisciplinary team (MDT) meeting will be cancerous.

I hope this helps to know.

Please get back to us if you need any more information or support. You may find it helpful to talk things through with one of the nurses on our helpline. The number to call is Freephone 0808 800 4040 and the lines are open from 9am till 5pm Monday to Friday.

Take care,

Caroline
