This procedure uses a thin needle and real-time X-ray imaging (fluoroscopy) to extract tissue samples from a suspicious lump or mass in your skin or just beneath it for laboratory testing. Patients typically receive this when doctors need to determine if a growth or lesion is cancerous or benign without surgical removal. This is commonly performed as an outpatient procedure and may include separate charges for the pathology lab analysis of the collected tissue sample.
