The radiologist performs an ultrasound-guided biopsy when a tissue sample needs to be obtained from an internal area, using ultrasound as a real-time guide. The image helps direct the needle precisely toward the area of interest.

What is it for? It allows nodules, masses, or lesions to be studied by analyzing them in the laboratory and guiding the diagnosis.

What to expect? It's usually done with local anesthesia on an outpatient basis; ultrasound avoids radiation during the procedure.

Besides the radiologist, a general practitioner can guide the initial referral. The results should be interpreted together with your doctor, who will explain their meaning in the context of your case.

Before you book

  • Every licensed doctor in Mexico holds a cédula profesional, a national licence number. It appears on our doctor profiles where we have it, and you can verify it yourself against the federal registry.
  • Ask exactly what a quoted price covers. Consultation, imaging, anaesthesia, materials and follow-up visits are often quoted separately.
  • Ask who handles follow-up once you are home, and what happens if something needs correcting. For treatment that spans several visits, agree the schedule before you travel.
