All outpatient liver biopsies were performed with imaging guidance. Track embolization was used in 83 of 93 children. 3 patients with thrombocytopenia were given platelets prior to the procedure.Minor complications included subcapsular hematoma (n=3) and severe or persistent pain. Two patients retuned...

With all the advantages offered by ultrasound guidance, the overall sensitivity of this method in the tumor diagnosis has remained around 90%. Contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) guided percutaneous biopsy is a new developed technique aimed at increasing the accuracy of percutaneous biopsies. With new...
While blind percutaneous needle biopsy is the traditional technique, the use of ultrasound (US) guidance has increased considerably. Literatures were reviewed to assess the existing clinical practice of PLB with an emphasis on the technique, the operator, types of biopsy needles, quality of LB ...
Efficacy and Safety of Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Liver Biopsies in Parenchymal Liver Diseases: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis: 1006Shah, AnupMartinez, Isabel C. GuerridoValentin, NelsonGolfeyz, ShmuelCollins, Kelsey E.Hershman, Melissa...
MR-guided biopsy of liver lesions with use of a 0.5-T open-configuration magnet is safe and accurate when compared with CT and US. No statistical difference was observed between the diagnostic yield of biopsies performed with MR, CT, and US guidance. MR enabled biopsy of a number of lesions...
HCV-RNA was examined in serum and liver tissue obtained from 8 hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) negative patients with liver nodules ranging in size from 2 to 11 cm. Histological examination of ultrasound-guided fine needle biopsies revealed the presence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in six...
