Ultrasound-Guided Visceral Biopsies:

چکیده
Ultrasound-guided percutaneous biopsy of visceral organs in the abdomen has been in effect for many years. Paul Ehrlich is credited with performing the first percutaneous liver biopsy in 1883 in Germany. Schüpfer in 1907 published the first liver biopsy series. Huard and Baron popularized liver biopsy for general purposes in the1930s. Some of the more contemporary articles reporting ultrasound-guided procedures were written in 1972 by Goldberg and Pollack. The basic approach to planning an ultrasoundguided biopsy is similar to performing any other interventional procedure. However, there are certain complexities specific to biopsy of the liver and kidney that are addressed in this article.

Safety and tissue yield for percutaneous native kidney biopsy according to practitioner and ultrasound technique
BACKGROUND Although percutaneous renal biopsy remains an essential tool in the diagnosis and treatment of renal diseases, in recent times the traditional procedure of nephrologists has been performed by non-nephrologists rather than nephrologists at many institutions. The present study assessed the safety and adequacy of tissue yield during percutaneous renal biopsy according to practitioners a...

BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to determine whether the use of ultrasound and percutaneous breast biopsies in patients with screen-detected nonpalpable abnormalities can reduce benign open surgical biopsies of the breast without increasing cost or sacrificing detection of potentially curable breast carcinomas. METHOD Using a computerized mammography database and consecutive logs o...

متن کاملCost-effectiveness of ultrasound-guided liver biopsy.
The risk of a major complication from "blind" percutaneous liver biopsy is reported to be in the range of 0.24% to 3.8%. In a recent randomized trial, patients whose liver biopsies were performed with ultrasonography had a significant reduction in complications requiring hospitalization compared with patients without ultrasound-guided biopsies (0.5% vs. 2.2%, P < .05). Despite this, routine use...

Email: [email protected] Abstract Background: A transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy is currently the gold standard procedure to detect prostatic adenocarcinoma. There is little information on the clinical utility of this technique for the detection of prostate adenocarcinoma in men with suspected prostate cancer in Pakistan. This study seeks to determine the frequency of prostat...
