Specialized Ultrasound Guided Biopsy Services in Houston at AR Diagnostics
Thyroid Screening and Ultrasound Guided Biopsy
Thyroid issues can range from benign nodules to more serious conditions. Our thyroid screening service employs ultrasound technology to identify any abnormalities or nodules within the thyroid gland. If a suspicious nodule is detected, we proceed with an ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy, a precise method to extract a small tissue sample for further examination. This approach minimizes discomfort and enhances diagnostic accuracy.
Breast Ultrasound Guided Biopsy
Breast health is critical, and our team is equipped to provide minimally invasive ultrasound core biopsy services to evaluate breast masses. This service is especially beneficial for examining areas of concern that may not be visible on a mammogram. By precisely targeting the area of interest using ultrasound guidance, we can collect tissue samples with minimal discomfort, offering clarity and direction for any necessary treatments.
Lymph Node Screening and Ultrasound Guided Biopsy
Lymph nodes play a vital role in your body’s immune response and can sometimes indicate underlying health issues when enlarged or abnormal. Our screening service uses ultrasound to inspect the lymph nodes’ size, shape, and structure. If abnormalities are found, an ultrasound-guided biopsy allows for accurate sampling of the lymph node tissue, facilitating a thorough analysis and appropriate medical response.
