How To Do Thyroid Puncture Needle Biopsy?

By touching the thyroid gland or guided by ultrasound, the doctor uses a syringe or gun fitted with a puncture needle to extract elements from the diseased thyroid gland (including the thyroid tissue itself or nodules).

These components are then sent to the hospital pathology department for analysis and evaluation, which completes a thyroid puncture biopsy.

In order to avoid pain, some hospitals will give patients local anesthesia before the puncture.
