Balasubramanian I, Fleming CA, Corrigan MA, et al: Meta-analysis of the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration and core needle biopsy in diagnosing axillary lymph node ...

Ultrasound (US) guided biopsy is a medical procedure routinely performed in clinical practice. This task could be performed by robotic systems to improve the precision in the execution and then the ...

Core needle biopsy (CNB) sampling is known to be inexpensive and minimally invasive relative to traditional tissue resectioning. But CNBs are often not used in analytical settings because of the tiny ...

Navigational bronchoscopy showed similar accuracy to needle biopsy for diagnosing lung nodules, with a markedly lower risk of pneumothorax and related complications.

[2] A stiff steel needle for fine needle aspiration biopsy is the 'core' of this biopsy instrument. The needle is manipulated by a handle piston in the biopsy handle (Fig. 1).

Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration biopsy (EUS-FNA) is currently performed on a routine basis at many endoscopic centers and it is evident that this procedure has a major impact ...

Needle localization in ultrasound images is pivotal for the successful execution of ultrasound-guided core needle biopsies. Automating the needle detection process can decrease the procedure time and ...
