Diagnostic accuracy of large-core needle biopsy for nonpalpable breast disease: a meta-analysis [PDF]

British Journal of Cancer, 2000
For the evaluation of non-palpable lesions of the breast, image-guided large-core needle biopsies are increasingly replacing needle-localized open breast biopsies. In this study, the diagnostic accuracy of this minimally invasive technique was evaluated by reviewing the available literature.

Core Needle Biopsy Can Early and Precisely Identify Large Thyroid Masses

Frontiers in Oncology, 2022
BackgroundLarge thyroid masses, particularly if rapidly growing, are often characterized by compression and infiltration of the vital structures of the neck.

Development and evaluation of a prediction model for underestimated invasive breast cancer in women with ductal carcinoma in situ at stereotactic large core needle biopsy. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND:We aimed to develop a multivariable model for prediction of underestimated invasiveness in women with ductal carcinoma in situ at stereotactic large core needle biopsy, that can be used to select patients for sentinel node biopsy at primary ...

Stereotactic large-core needle breast biopsy: analysis of pain and discomfort related to the biopsy procedure [PDF]

European Radiology, 2007
The purpose of this study was to determine the significance of variables such as duration of the procedure, type of breast tissue, number of passes, depth of the biopsies, underlying pathology, the operator performing the procedure, and their effect on women's perception of pain and discomfort during stereotactic large-core needle breast biopsy.

MR-guided breast biopsy at 3T: diagnostic yield of large core needle biopsy compared with vacuum-assisted biopsy [PDF]

European Radiology, 2011
The purpose of this study was to evaluate two MR-guided biopsy techniques at 3 T, large core needle breast biopsy (LCNB) and vacuum-assisted breast biopsy (VAB) and to compare the diagnostic yield and rate of complications to determine the optimal biopsy technique at 3 T.55 LCNB and 64 VAB were consecutively performed.

Advantages of thyroid core needle biopsy: an emerging selective first-line biopsy modality [PDF]

Ultrasonography
Ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) for thyroid lesions has proven safe and effective; however, FNAB has limitations, including the frequent occurrence of nondiagnostic and inconclusive results and technical challenges in specific ...

Fourteen‐gauge ultrasonographically guided large‐core needle biopsy of breast masses.

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, 2001
Large‐core needle biopsy of the breast can be performed with stereotactic or ultrasonographic guidance. However, ultrasonographically guided large‐core needle biopsy has notable advantages, including the absence of ionizing radiation, increased patient comfort, and greater cost‐effectiveness.

Ultrasound-enhanced fine-needle aspiration biopsy improves yield of solid benign parotid gland tumor tissue: a pilot study [PDF]

European Radiology Experimental
Objectives Fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) and core-needle biopsy (CNB) are common methods to evaluate the pathology of an abnormal tissue mass. However, both methods have their limitations, e.g., FNAB samples often remain inadequate, and CNB is ...

Feasibility of MRI-guided large-core-needle biopsy of suspiscious breast lesions at 3 T [PDF]

European Radiology, 2009
The feasibility of large-core-needle magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided breast biopsy at 3 T was assessed. Thirty-one suspicious breast lesions shown only by MRI were detected in 30 patients. Biopsy procedures were performed in a closed-bore 3-T clinical MR system on a dedicated phased-array breast coil with a commercially available add-on ...

Cost-effectiveness of stereotactic large-core needle biopsy for nonpalpable breast lesions compared to open-breast biopsy

British Journal of Cancer, 2004
This paper demonstrates that the introduction of large-core needle biopsy (LCNB) replacing needle-localised breast biopsy (NLBB) for nonpalpable (screen-detected) breast lesions could result in substantial cost savings at the expense of a possible slight increase in breast cancer mortality.
