Novel Biopsy Gun Impacts Biopsy Sample Quality and Quantity
The serrated-edge design may improve biopsy sample quality and quantity without increasing needle size or penetration depth, potentially reducing the need for repeated passes. Device research and innovations may further improve biopsy efficacy and outcomes and reduce complications.
