Biopsy Large
Overview
A large biopsy test involves extracting a substantial sample of tissue from a particular area of the body for thorough examination. This procedure is crucial for diagnosing various conditions, including cancers and infections. The tissue is analyzed under a microscope by a pathologist to identify abnormal cells or disease indicators. This detailed assessment helps determine the presence, extent, and nature of any underlying health issues, guiding further treatment decisions.
