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.

Complications of Liver Biopsy - Risk Factors, Management and Recommendations

The role of liver biopsy (LB), the traditional gold standard for assessing liver disease, continues to evolve1-4. Fewer biopsies are being done for diagnosis as noninvasive tests such as new imaging techniques and accurate serological tests can now be done instead in many cases2-4.

Liquid Biopsy: Advances, Limitations and Clinical Applications

As an important part of precision medicine, liquid biopsy attracts more and more attention of scholars and clinicians. It refers to the real-time monitoring of the dynamic alterations of tumor by detecting circulating tumor cells (CTCs), circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and exosomes in patients’ plasma or serum. Thus, liquid biopsy has irreplaceable advantages in tumor early diagnosis, progression...
