In order to improve the technique of fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB), we developed a disposable syringe that allows one to perform aspiration with one hand while eliminating the need for a classic syringe holder. This study compared the cellularity and diagnostic adequacy of the material obtained with the new syringe and a syringe holder. Moreover, the acceptance of the new technique by physicians in training and by patients was tested. FNAB was performed with a syringe holder and the new syringe on 120 lesions from different body sites. The total number of diagnostic cells and their relative percentage were estimated. The results of the study indicated that the adequacy of a conclusive cytologic diagnosis was similar for both techniques. Moreover, a comparable cellular yield was demonstrated by a linear relationship between the total number of diagnostic cells (r = .84, slope = .83). The new technique was favorably accepted by physicians in training and patients. FNAB with the new syringe can be performed routinely.
为了改进细针穿刺活检（FNAB）技术，我们研发了一种一次性注射器，它能让使用者单手进行抽吸，同时无需使用传统的注射器握持器。本研究比较了使用新型注射器和注射器握持器所获取材料的细胞含量及诊断充分性。此外，还测试了实习医生和患者对这项新技术的接受程度。对来自不同身体部位的120个病灶分别使用注射器握持器和新型注射器进行细针穿刺活检。估算诊断性细胞的总数及其相对百分比。研究结果表明，两种技术在确定性细胞学诊断的充分性方面相似。此外，诊断性细胞总数之间的线性关系显示出可比的细胞产量（r = 0.84，斜率 = 0.83）。实习医生和患者对这项新技术的接受度良好。使用新型注射器进行细针穿刺活检可常规开展。
