Protocol Biopsy: Today’s Fine-Needle Aspiration Biopsy?
Transplantation, 2007This counter view of protocol biopsy suggests that the widespread clinical use of this technique may be questionable. It may remain primarily a valuable research tool. Cost and risk remain as major issues. Be it screening by routine computed tomography scan for apparently normal people or routine biopsy of normal functioning kidneys there is always the
