A Tru-Cut biopsy is a minimally invasive procedure

A Tru-Cut biopsy is a minimally invasive procedure that involves using a spring-loaded needle to extract a cylindrical tissue sample, known as a "core." The needle has a cutting mechanism that allows it to capture a solid piece of tissue from the targeted area. This method enables pathologists to examine the tissue's architecture, which is crucial in identifying the presence of diseases like cancer, fibrosis, or chronic inflammation.
