Stereotactic biopsy is a medical procedure that helps diagnose abnormal tissue or lumps in the brain or breast. The procedure involves the use of imaging technology to guide the biopsy needle to the target area. Synonyms for stereotactic biopsy include computer-guided biopsy, image-directed biopsy, and minimally invasive biopsy. These procedures share the same goal of obtaining tissue samples with precision and minimal disruption to surrounding tissue. Other synonyms for stereotactic biopsy include needle biopsy, core biopsy, and vacuum-assisted biopsy. Ultimately, the various terms describe the same type of biopsy, each emphasizing different aspects of the procedure.
