Tumor Biopsy

A tumor biopsy is a medical procedure where a small sample of tissue is taken from a tumor to be examined for signs of cancer or other diseases. This is usually done using a needle or during surgery. The collected tissue is sent to a laboratory, where specialists analyze it under a microscope. The results help doctors diagnose the condition, determine its type, and decide on the best treatment options. Biopsies are essential for understanding tumors and ensuring that patients receive appropriate care.
