The breast pathology service evaluates cancers and other lesions of the breast. UCLA is home to the nationally-renowned
Revlon/UCLA Breast Center and
Iris Cantor Women's Health Center, and offers a comprehensive range of diagnostic services including evaluation of biopsies and resections for diagnosis of conditions including intraductal and infiltrating carcinoma.

In addition to determining if cancer is present in biopsy tissue, important prognostic and predictive factors are evaluated to guide therapy.
