Breast Pathology Consultation Service
The Breast Pathology Service supports a large volume of cases, including 2,000 breast biopsies and 1,000 mastectomy specimens annually. We are supported by outstanding immunohistochemistry and molecular pathology laboratories for providing an accurate diagnosis and for biomarker testing. Our average turnaround time for rush biopsies is two days, including ancillary receptor studies.
Our board-certified pathologists have breast subspecialty expertise and interpret challenging breast cases daily. We perform a more complete and detailed pathology report than is typically provided. This includes information about traditional pathologic factors such as tumor stage and ER, PR, and HER2 status in breast cancers. Additional sophisticated molecular tests are available if required.
