According to the behavior of the samples we introduce the presupposition of the outcome of the final histology. Core-cut biopsy, a method of breast tissue puncture, was used at the area of interest or on the opacity in the breast. Four and more samples were taken under the control of stereotactic system on mammograms. Taken samples were taken in the fixative solution (formaldehyde) and the behavior of the tissue samples during fixation was observed.
