Biopsy

Noticing any lump or suspicious lesion on our furry friend? Don’t wait for it to subside and get it biopsied soon.

What: It can be done both externally and internally by surgically removing tissue from the body to get analysed by the pathologist.

When: A small piece, or a slice can be tested when surgical removal of entire mass seems critical and invasive.

How: By giving local anaesthesia to the pet, a portion of the mass is carved out for sample testing.

Why: To avoid penetration of the unwanted mass through vital organs and excessive blood loss, biopsy is a prerequisite for mass/tumour removal surgeries.
