متن کاملUltrasound-assisted transthoracic biopsy: fine-needle aspiration or cutting-needle biopsy?
The present study compared the diagnostic yield of ultrasound-assisted cutting-needle biopsy (CNB) and fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) in chest lesions. A physician performed ultrasound and FNAB with a 22-G spinal needle in all patients, directly followed by a 14-G CNB in patients without contraindication. A total of 155 consecutive lesions arising from the lung (74%), pleura (12%), medias...
