What type of bisopsy should I have?

Hi I was just told by the doctor who does my annual mamagrams that he believes I have a very tiny cancer in my left breast. He also did a sonagram and wants me to see a surgeon right away about a biopsy. He said by looking at it he believes it is cancer. What would be the best way to biopsy this?
