Fine-needle aspiration of solid tumors other than cervical neoplasms has, until recently, been held in low esteem by US physicians. Its disfavor is undeserved, contend the authors of this article, who base their opinion on the findings from 545 aspirations done over a two-year period. They assert that in experienced hands, in the appropriate setting, and with discriminate use, this diagnostic technique yields accurate results safely and rapidly.
直到最近,美国医生对除宫颈肿瘤以外的实体瘤进行细针穿刺活检的评价都不高。本文作者认为这种偏见是不公正的,他们的观点基于两年内545次穿刺活检的结果。他们宣称,在经验丰富的医生手中,在合适的情况下,谨慎使用,这种诊断技术能安全、快速地得出准确结果。
