Tissue Sampling • Gomti Nagar

Image-Guided Biopsy in Lucknow

A biopsy collects tissue for laboratory evaluation when clinical findings or imaging require further assessment. Sampling may be considered for selected liver, gall bladder, pancreas, lung, kidney, breast, thyroid, lymph-node and other solid lesions. Image guidance may be used to localise the target and plan an appropriate route.

Understanding the Procedure

What is a biopsy?

Biopsy generally provides a tissue sample, which differs from the cellular sample collected by FNAC.

Core needle biopsy is supported by existing centre content for selected image-visible lesions when clinically advised.

Before diagnostic sampling

Understand the sample, planning and follow-up

Biopsy provides tissue for laboratory evaluation

A biopsy generally collects tissue so that cells and tissue architecture can be evaluated. This differs from FNAC, which mainly collects cellular material.

The imaging method, needle type and sampling approach depend on the organ, target visibility, accessibility and clinical plan. Not every lesion is suitable for the same technique.

Safety review before image-guided sampling

The procedure team may need recent imaging, blood counts or coagulation results. Allergies, bleeding history and medicines—especially blood-thinning treatment—must be disclosed.

Do not stop prescribed medicines without specific advice. Observation, dressing care and activity guidance vary with the biopsy site.

Image Guidance

How image guidance helps

Imaging supports localisation and planning, but it does not eliminate procedure-related risks or guarantee a diagnostic or treatment outcome.

  • Ultrasound or other imaging may guide selected biopsies.
  • Local anaesthesia may be used where appropriate to the procedure.
  • For breast tissue sampling, see the dedicated Breast Biopsy page.
