Preoperative diagnosis of benign neurogenic neoplasms (BNNs) provides useful information in guiding management. To assess the effectiveness of fine-needle aspiration (FNA) and needle core biopsy (NCB) in diagnosing schwannomas and neurofibromas, 40 percutaneous biopsies interpreted as BNNs or obtain

However, FNA as a method of evaluation of enlarged lymph nodes has been approached with a greater degree of caution a
## Abstract Follicular lymphoma is a relatively uncommon type of nonβHodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) thought to derive from follicular center cells. There are limitations to fineβneedle aspiration in the diagnosis of follicular NHL, and very few studies are available on it. We describe here the cytomorpho
The risk of complications from percutaneous liver biopsy is low, but discomfort is common and complications require hospitalization in approximately 4% of patients. The optimal method of performing these biopsies is unknown. The goal of our study was to determine whether the use of ultrasonography i
## BACKGROUND. The authors attempted to determine the utility of percutaneous core needle biopsy (PCNB) compared with fine-needle aspiration (FNA) in the diagnosis of peripheral lung carcinoma. ## METHODS. A retrospective review was undertaken of 156 computed tomography (CT)-guided PCNBs and FN
