Abstract:
Fine needle aspiration (FNA) and core biopsy (CB) are efficient alternatives to surgical biopsy: FNA provides a sampling of cells and is very cost effective. The main limits are insufficient sampling rate and the impossibility to diagnose invasion. CB allows architectural description and the diagnosis of specific benign and malignant lesions, but is more expensive and time-consuming.
