Needle biopsy of the liver is a means of securing a strip of hepatic tissue for histologic examination by a relatively simple procedure that can be performed at the patient's bedside. The idea is not new. It was first suggested in 1895.1Although a few investigators in Europe employed the method, it received little attention until 1939. Since then there

IT HAS been apparent for years that some aid must be found in making an early diagnosis of diseases of the liver, especially when there is minimal or moderate functional impairment. Employment of needle biopsy of the liver has been useful in this regard, and evidence is accumulating which indicates the value of this procedure.

ABSTRACT: Utilizing radiologic C-arm control, percutaneous needle biopsy of the spine may be performed safely at the T11 through L5 levels. Its main advantage is the avoidance of performing an open surgical biopsy; however, it is an exacting technique and, even when done properly, the procedure may result in nondiagnostic tissue.

If properly performed, needle biopsy is a useful diagnostic procedure which often is more advantageous than other biopsy methods. It is safe, expeditious and inexpensive. Needle biopsy consists of (1) aspiration of bits of tissue or of a core of tissue through the needle into the syringe or (2) cutting of a core of tissue which is withdrawn with the ...

JCR: Journal of Clinical Rheumatology, 1997
We review our experience with needle muscle biopsy, including technique, results, complications, and outcome. We have collected data from 40 consecutive patients undergoing needle muscle biopsy of the quadriceps muscle. All biopsies were performed by the same operator and 98% were performed in the outpatient clinic. Specimens were sent to pathology for

To the Editor.— Drs. Immergut and Plotkin (211:827, 1970) are to be commended for their courage and candor in reporting their renal biopsy complication. I agree with their conclusion that renal arteriography should be done promptly when faced with postbiopsy bleeding. However, I must take issue with their statement that renal biopsy under fluoroscopic

It is often extremely difficult to ascertain the nature of a lesion in the peripheral portion of the pulmonary parenchyma. Roentgenographic evidence of the presence of a region of increased density within a lung is always an indication for additional diagnostic procedures.

American Journal of Roentgenology, 1984
A review of 52 consecutive needle biopsies of the mediastinum is presented. The aspirated material yielded cytologic and/or histologic diagnosis in 50 needle biopsies; two needle biopsies failed to yield adequate cellular material for diagnosis. All but two of the 50 patients had confirmation of the biopsy diagnosis by surgical, autopsy, or clinical ...

Percutaneous biopsy is the radiologist's most frequently performed interventional procedure. Its success is due to a number of factors, including rapid advancements in biopsy needle technology which have allowed interventionalists to improve upon the efficacy, safety, and accuracy of the procedure.

Needle Aspiration and Needle Biopsy Procedures
Urologic Clinics of North America, 1987Needle biopsy of the prostate, employing large "core" needles and performed via the transperineal or transrectal routes, is a well-established method for diagnosing prostatic malignancy. This procedure can be performed safely under local anesthesia in an outpatient setting.
