[Analysis of the results of 96 CT-guided fine needle biopsies of liver masses]. 1984

M Lüning, and B Schmeisser, and H Wolff, and W Schöpke, and E Hoppe, and R Meyer

A prospective study of 96 CT-guided fine needle biopsies in 93 patients showed 47 malignant and 46 benign lesions in the liver. Overall accuracy was 97%, with a sensitivity of 92% as specificity of 96%. At least four punctures per biopsy were necessary for a reliable diagnosis. In order to save time, fine needle biopsy is recommended to be carried out immediately after the initial CT.
