Abstract
A system and method for on-site biopsy management. Patient information is retrieved through a biopsy system. A name of a patient, a biopsy type, and a site of the biopsy information are communicated to a user. Confirmations are received from the user through the biopsy system of the name of the patient, the biopsy type, and the site of the biopsy. A biopsy is associated with an identifier of a container securing the biopsy in response to receiving the confirmation. The biopsy information and the patient information is linked in the biopsy system. The linking is performed at a location the biopsy is performed.
