Sanilac County, Mich. – Have you noticed a strange mass or lump on your body that is causing you concern?
It might be time to seek a professional opinion and related testing. When an initial test such as a mammogram, ultrasound, MRI, or CT scan indicates abnormal tissue, a lesion, a tumor, or a mass, further exploration is often necessary. In such cases, a doctor may recommend a biopsy to investigate the area more thoroughly.
McKenzie Health System is committed to helping you stay on top of your health by offering a range of Diagnostic Imaging Services, including Biopsies and Fine Needle Aspiration. Early detection of cancer and other diseases is crucial, and understanding the pathology of a questionable area is a significant step in that process.
Jay Smith, Director of Diagnostic Imaging and Cardiopulmonary, explains, “With the addition of General Surgeon Dr. Khan, Fine Needle Aspirations are now available for thyroid biopsies and biopsies of fluid-filled structures like cysts. This procedure requires no incision, and the doctor can take multiple samples of tissue or fluid with minimal bleeding and discomfort.”
