Anywhere from 3 days to 2 weeks.
They know immediately, but usually take three to seven days before they provide a report to the patient.
Mammo is more realistic. What I meant is that the lab tech who reviews the tissue slides knows immediately. Bear in mind that in the event of a malignancy they want to know before the patient leaves the table. A long wait generally means a good result.
It depends on the type of biopsy. Certain biopsies take a couple days because of special staining processes that must be done, but your average biopsy comes back in the times mammo and caregiver222 mentioned.
I got my results back and everything was good. Thanks
