Biopsy is crucial for cancer diagnosis. Proper technique selection, including percutaneous, endoscopic, or excisional methods, improves accuracy and reduces complications for effective cancer patient workup.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Surgical Pathology
  • Diagnostic Imaging

Background:

  • Biopsy is a fundamental component of cancer diagnosis.
  • Various biopsy techniques exist, each with specific applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the indications, accuracy, and efficacy of different biopsy methods.
  • To emphasize the importance of technique in optimizing biopsy outcomes.
  • To discuss the role of intraoperative biopsy in surgical planning.

Main Methods:

  • Review of percutaneous, endoscopic, catheter, incisional, and excisional biopsy techniques.
  • Analysis of factors influencing biopsy accuracy and efficacy.
  • Consideration of intraoperative microscopy applications.
