A Tru-Cut Biopsy (or Core Needle Biopsy) is a powerful, modern, minimally invasive procedure to get a high-quality, definitive diagnosis. It's a step up from a fine-needle (FNAC) test. It uses a specialized needle to obtain a small, solid core of tissue, not just loose cells. This provides a much better picture of the tissue's "architecture." A sample is taken from a lump or organ (like the breast, prostate, or liver), often under ultrasound guidance. This is the gold-standard procedure for an accurate diagnosis. It provides the robust, conclusive sample our pathologists need to give you and your doctor the most complete and reliable answer possible.
