Understanding patient perspectives is key to improving satisfaction during image-guided breast biopsies. Radiologists can use this knowledge to develop strategies that manage patient concerns throughout the breast imaging process.

Area of Science:

Radiology
Patient-Centered Care
Medical Imaging

Background:

Breast imaging has historically set a standard for patient communication in radiology.
It is increasingly adopting patient- and family-centered care approaches.
Optimizing patient satisfaction during image-guided procedures is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

To review patient perspectives before, during, and after image-guided breast biopsies.
To identify strategies for enhancing the patient experience.
To improve patient satisfaction in breast imaging procedures.

Main Methods:

Literature review of patient perspectives.
Analysis of patient concerns during core-needle breast biopsies.
Identification of best practices for patient communication and care.

Keywords:

biopsy pain breast cancer image-guided breast biopsy patient anxiety patient communication patient experience patient satisfaction
