Biopsy Guidance

Biopsy guidance refers to the techniques used by healthcare professionals to accurately locate and obtain a tissue sample from a specific area in the body for analysis. This is crucial for diagnosing conditions like cancer. Guidance methods may include imaging technologies such as ultrasound, CT scans, or MRI, which help doctors see inside the body and target the exact spot for the biopsy. By using these methods, doctors can ensure that the sample collected is representative of the area in question, leading to more accurate results and better patient care.
