hello everyone.
Did anyone with HCC have a biopsy? I read somewhere that they dont usually do biopsies after mri and ct and ultrasound but my partner has been told he is having a biopsy next week. Just wondered how many of you had to have this and how did you feel after . Thank you
Yes I did. They said it was necessary to determine precisely what treatment if any would be offered. The biology itself was not bad at all. I had no pain afterwards and the worst part was having to lie still for hours afterwards
a lesion was discovered after my scan .i had a biopry which was fairly painless.They gave me a sandwich and went home after.the biopsy confirmed that it was cancerous.
Thank you mozlaw. Sorry to hear you have a tumor
i chose to have it treated with sabre successfully three years ago at birmingham hospital
Is there anyone on here experiencing cirrhosis and HCC? My dad has recently been diagnosed.
Liver biopsy recovery
Liver biopsy, not so bad
Can cirrhosis be diagnosed without a biopsy and can fibrosis be much closer to cirrhosis if an US, CT scan and fibroscan all show fibrosis?Liver Biopsy, how bad is it?
