Liver Biopsy by Needle

  در نمونه برداری سوزنی کبد یا آسپیراسیون کبد، توسط سوزن نمونه برداری می توان نمونه ای از بافت کبدی را جهت تشخیص اکثر اختلالات کبدی، اثبات وجود سرطان کبد، یا ارزیابی اثرات داروهای آسیب رساننده به کبد تهیه کرد. همچنین با انجام نمونه برداری های مکرر روند پیشرفت و پاسخ بیماران به درمان بیماری های کبدی مزمنی چون هپاتیت فعال را می توان مشخص نمود.

Concordance Rate between Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy and Core Needle Biopsy in Breast Lesions

Background and Objectives:Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide. Fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) is one of the methods of breast biopsy which is fast, easy and cost effective.

Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology versus Fine Needle Capillary Sampling in Cytological Diagnosis of Thyroid Lesions

Background and Objectives: Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is an established out- patient procedure used in primary diagnosis of palpable thyroid lesions. A modified technique fine needle capillary sampling (FNCS) obviates the need of suction, is less painful, patient friendly and reported to overcome the problem of inadequate and bloody specimens. The aim of our study was to compare the...
