    Transcutaneous fine needle biopsy of retroperitoneal lymph nodes offers a minimally invasive method for diagnosing metastatic cancer. A novel puncture instrument enhances accuracy and reduces radiation exposure for patients and clinicians.

    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Radiology
    • Surgical Instrumentation

    Context:

    • Retroperitoneal lymph node biopsy is crucial for staging cancer metastasis.
    • Lymphography aids in identifying retroperitoneal lymph node involvement.
    • Current biopsy methods can cause patient discomfort and involve radiation exposure.

    Purpose:

    • To introduce a new instrument for transcutaneous fine needle biopsy of retroperitoneal lymph nodes.
    • To improve the accuracy of lymph node puncture.
    • To reduce radiation exposure during diagnostic procedures.

    Summary:

    • A novel puncture instrument enhances the accuracy of transcutaneous fine needle biopsy for retroperitoneal lymph nodes.
    • The instrument minimizes radiation exposure for both patients and medical professionals.
