- Endoscopy and Biopsy
- • A biopsy, either with a fine needle (FNA) or regular needle, is often necessary. This procedure can be done
- through the skin without significant danger. The biopsy sample can be used to distinguish between types of
- malignancy because the tumor cells of different cancers have characteristic features under the microscope.
