<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Stereotactic biopsy''' is a type of [[biopsy]] that uses a computer and imaging performed in at least two planes to localize a target lesion such as a [[tumor]] or microcalcifications in the body. The procedure is used to determine the nature of a lesion in the body.<br />
<br />
== Procedure ==<br />
The patient is positioned so that the lesion can be accurately targeted. The computer calculates the position and depth of the lesion, and the [[radiologist]] or [[surgeon]] uses this information to guide the biopsy needle to the precise location. The procedure is minimally invasive and usually performed under local [[anesthesia]].<br />
<br />
== Uses ==<br />
Stereotactic biopsy is often used when a lesion is difficult to reach or when it is not visible through other methods such as [[ultrasound]] or [[mammography]]. It is commonly used in the diagnosis of [[breast cancer]], [[brain tumors]], and other conditions.<br />
<br />
== Advantages ==<br />
The main advantage of stereotactic biopsy is its precision. It allows for accurate targeting of lesions, reducing the risk of damage to surrounding tissues. It is also less invasive than surgical biopsy, resulting in less pain and quicker recovery for the patient.<br />
<br />
== Risks ==<br />
As with any procedure, there are risks associated with stereotactic biopsy. These may include infection, bleeding, and an adverse reaction to anesthesia. There is also a small risk that the biopsy will not provide a definitive diagnosis, necessitating further testing.<br />
