Biopsy
A procedure to remove tissue for laboratory examination.
Biopsy techniques range from fine-needle aspiration (FNA) and core needle to excisional and laparoscopic. Choice depends on the lesion location and the specimen needed.
What this means for you: bring biopsy slides (not just reports) to international consultations. Pathology re-review by the destination's lab can change the diagnosis or staging in 5-10% of cases.
