Fine-needle Aspiration Biopsy
A fine-needle aspiration biopsy is a medical procedure used to collect cells from a solid mass, such as a lump, cyst, or tumor, for laboratory testing. A thin needle connected to a syringe is inserted into the mass, and samples of the cell material are collected. This procedure is quick, relatively painless, and cost-effective, and can provide a diagnosis for a variety of medical conditions. Additionally, it can be used to help evaluate the effectiveness of treatment for cancer or other serious diseases. In short, this procedure is an important tool for diagnosing and treating a range of medical conditions.
