Image-guided vacuum-assisted breast biopsy (IGVB) by PDF Summary

Book Description: In the basic scenario, it is assumed that the radiologist has a bed/bench available and the added investment costs would include only the $30,000 portion of the equipment. [...] Changing the lifetime of the equipment from five to seven years would reduce the total average costs in the low utilization end by about $18 per biopsy and by about $6 at the 300-biopsy level. [...] The three centre's currently using the technology in breast cancer biopsy are the Cross Cancer Institute in Edmonton, the Foothills Hospital in Calgary, and the Lethbridge Regional Hospital. [...] The results of that estimate are shown in Table 2. The next step required to model the biopsy data is to estimate the number of biopsies that would be elicited by IGVB. [...] The estimated IGVB cost (without office overhead) of about $650 per case (depending on the utilization, interest rate and lifetime of equipment) is about twice the fee of the stereotactic core needle biopsy (the closest alternative for the test).
