Fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy is a safe, reliable, and cost-effective technique available for the evaluation of head and neck masses. Its utility is enhanced by the use of CT-directed aspiration. Candidates for CT-directed FNA include patients with: 1. deep-seated lesions; 2. distorted anatomy as a result of surgery or irradiation; 3. medical problems which contraindicate general anesthesia. The initial UCLA experience with this modality is reviewed. In certain clinical settings, CT-directed FNA can be a highly productive source of clinical information.
细针穿刺(FNA)活检是一种安全、可靠且具有成本效益的技术,可用于评估头颈部肿块。CT引导下穿刺可提高其效用。CT引导下FNA的适用人群包括:1. 深部病变患者;2. 因手术或放疗导致解剖结构变形的患者;3. 存在全身麻醉禁忌的内科疾病患者。本文回顾了加州大学洛杉矶分校(UCLA)最初使用这种方法的经验。在某些临床情况下,CT引导下FNA可以成为临床信息的高效来源。
