Another study showed that a 14-gauge stainless steel core needle was feasible and effective for magnetic resonance (MR)–guided biopsy.

MR-guided breast biopsy with a 14-gauge stainless steel core biopsy needle is both feasible and effective, when used with an MR-compatible coaxial device, a new study shows.

Biopsy needles are typically 15 cm in length and 18- to 25-gauge in diameter. They may be aspirating or core biopsy needles. In addition, "automatic firing" biopsy guns are available.

Performance of 16 (16 g) (n=103) and 18 gauge (18 g) (n=101) biopsy needles in transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided 10-core prostate biopsies were compared in terms of cancer detection and pre ...

Forgeard C, Benchaib M, Guerin N et al, Is surgical biopsy mandatory in case of atypical ductal hyperplasia on 11-gauge core needle biopsy? A retrospective study of 300 patients.

Core-needle biopsies can also be ultrasound-guided, or a doctor may use an MRI or mammogram machine. This latter procedure is called a stereotactic breast biopsy.

The biopsies were performed with 25G core needles (EchoTip ProCore Endobronchial HD Biopsy Needle, Cook Endoscopy Inc., Limeric, Ireland) with 2 to 5 needle passes in at least 2 selected areas. Both ...
