Removal of a sample of tissue from the breast using a wide-core needle with suction.
biopsy of deep tissue that is obtained through a hollow needle
an outpatient procedure that uses a local anesthetic and typically does not require suturing
a quick outpatient procedure
a technique in which a radiologist anesthetizes the skin and inserts a needle through the chest into a lung mass
a way of taking a small piece of tissue out of your body, using only a tiny incision, so that it can be examined under a microscope by a pathologist, an expert in making diagnoses from tissue samples
A non-surgical sample of breast cells removed with a needle.
biopsy procedure in which a small sample of tissue is removed through a hollow needle.
a procedure to remove a small piece of breast tissue using a needle with a special cutting edge, after using a local anesthetic.
use of a needle to extract tissue, cells, or fluid for microscopic examination.
A surgical procedure in which a very fine needle is used to take a small sample of tumorous tissue in order to determine if it is cancerous or benign.
The removal of a piece of living tissue for microsopic examination by inserting a hollow needle through the skin and into the tissue
Sample of tissue taken with a needle and looked at under a microscope.
a small needle is inserted into the abnormal area in almost any part of the body, guided by imaging techniques, to obtain a tissue biopsy. This type of biopsy can provide a diagnosis without surgical intervention. An example of this procedure is called the needle breast biopsy.
a procedure where a needle is inserted through a bronchoscope or the chest wall to collect tissue or fluid.
A type of biopsy where a needle is used to withdraw small amounts of tissue or fluid for examination by a pathologist. This procedure is also called fine needle aspiration.
a procedure during which a hollow needle is used to obtain a core of tissue for study.
Use of a needle to extract cells or bits of tissue for microscopic examination.
A procedure in which a needle is advanced into a tumor mass in order to obtain a small piece of the tumor.
A biopsy is done to confirm a cancer diagnosis, identify the type of cancer and its stage. A needle biopsy draws a small piece of tissue from the tumor through a syringe.
the removal of tissue or fluid with a needle for examination under a microscope. Also called fine-needle aspiration.
Removing tissue through a hollow needle that is inserted into the breast lump. This tissue is then checked for cancer cells.
Removal of fluid, cells, or tissue with a needle for examination under a microscope. There are two types: fine needle aspiration (also called FNA or needle aspiration) and core biopsy. FNA uses a thin needle and syringe (like those used to give injections) to pierce the skin and draw up (aspirate) fluid or small tissue fragments from a tumor. A core needle biopsy uses a thicker needle to remove a cylindrical sample of tissue from a tumor.
Biopsy with the help of a hollow needle.
Removal of tissue or suspensions of cells from living patients through a small needle for diagnostic examination.
