Aspiration Procedures

Aspiration procedures involve using a fine needle or a small tube to remove fluid, tissue, or samples from the body for diagnosis or treatment. For example, in a biopsy, a robot or doctor guides a needle into an abnormal area to collect cells, which are then examined in a lab. Similarly, fluid from joints or cysts can be extracted to relieve symptoms or diagnose infections. These procedures are minimally invasive, typically performed with local anesthesia, and help doctors gather important information or treat various medical conditions efficiently.
