If your doctor spots something out of the ordinary on your chest X-ray orCT scan, they may ask you to get a lungbiopsy. In this procedure, a doctor removes a small sample of cells from your lung and checks it under a microscope for signs of disease. ...
lung biopsyImage-guided lung biopsy plays a very important role in the diagnosis and management of lung lesions. As a diagnostic tool, it demands a high diagnostic yield and a low complication rate. It is imperative to balance the diagnostic yield and patient safety during lung biopsies. The ...
Sebaceous glands are part of epidermal appendages. Neoplasms of the sebaceous glands may be benign, such as sebaceous hyperplasia or sebaceous gland adenomas. The malignant sebaceous gland carcinoma most commonly arises in the periocular area. [1, 2] Fewer than 120 cases of sebaceous cell carcinoma...
