Fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) is the diagnostic procedure of choice for evaluation of liver lesions. Although primarily applied to malignant disease, it is also used in the evaluation of benign conditions. Improvements in imaging techniques and advances in cytologic interpretations, as well as production of new biopsy needles, have all contributed to the rapid increase in radiologically guided liver FNAB.
细针穿刺活检（FNAB）是评估肝脏病变的首选诊断方法。虽然主要应用于恶性疾病，但也用于评估良性疾病。成像技术的改进、细胞学诊断的进展以及新型活检针的生产，都促使了在放射学引导下肝脏细针穿刺活检的迅速增加。
