Which type of biopsy uses a larger needle to obtain a larger tissue sample?

• Core needle biopsy

• Punch biopsy

• Fine needle biopsy

• Shave biopsy

What are the advantages of image-guided biopsy techniques over traditional biopsies?

• Image-guided biopsy techniques offer higher accuracy, less invasiveness, and better targeting of specific areas compared to traditional biopsies.

• Image-guided biopsies are more painful and risky

• Traditional biopsies are faster and more accurate

• There are no advantages to image-guided biopsy techniques

What are the potential risks or complications associated with core needle biopsy?

• Vision loss, hair loss, and tooth decay

• Allergic reaction, nerve damage, and scarring

• Bruising, muscle weakness, and joint pain

• Potential risks or complications associated with core needle biopsy include bleeding, infection, and damage to nearby structures.

How should a biopsy specimen be handled to ensure accurate test results?

• A biopsy specimen should be handled in a crowded and unclean environment to ensure accurate test results.

• A biopsy specimen should be handled carefully to avoid contamination and ensure accurate test results.

• A biopsy specimen should be handled with bare hands to save time on using gloves.

• A biopsy specimen should be handled roughly to speed up the testing process.

What are the different methods of obtaining tissue samples in a biopsy procedure?

• Blood test biopsy

• X-ray biopsy

• Ultrasound biopsy

• The different methods of obtaining tissue samples in a biopsy procedure include fine needle aspiration, core needle biopsy, surgical biopsy, and endoscopic biopsy.

What are the key factors to consider when choosing the appropriate biopsy technique for a specific case?

• The weather on the day of the biopsy

• The color of the patient's clothing

• The patient's favorite food

• The key factors to consider when choosing the appropriate biopsy technique for a specific case include the location of the suspected lesion, the size and depth of the lesion, the type of tissue being sampled, the patient's overall health and any potential risks or complications associated with the biopsy procedure.

What are the potential limitations of biopsy procedures in diagnosing certain medical conditions?

• Biopsy procedures are not necessary for diagnosis

• Biopsy procedures always provide accurate results

• Potential limitations of biopsy procedures include sampling error, difficulty in obtaining a representative sample, and the possibility of false-negative results.

• Biopsy procedures have no limitations
