Sonraí teagmhála

Breast service

The breast service provides comprehensive, multidisciplinary care for patients with symptomatic breast conditions, with a special focus on women diagnosed with breast cancer. Our triple assessment clinics offer a streamlined experience where patients can see a surgeon, undergo imaging (such as mammograms or ultrasounds), and receive a biopsy (fine needle aspiration for cytology) all in one visit.

Triple assessment breast clinic

The triple assessment breast clinic is a specialised service that evaluates breast health for patients who may have concerns, such as lumps or changes in their breasts. During your visit, you will have three key assessments: Clinical examination: A doctor will physically check your breasts. Imaging: You will have tests like a mammogram or ultrasound to look inside the breast. Tissue sampling: If necessary, a small sample of tissue will be taken to check for any signs of disease. This comprehensive approach helps to quickly and accurately diagnose any problems, ensuring patients receive appropriate care and support.
