Overview

Biopsy

The test is used to diagnose cancer or an infection:

  • When the doctor feels swollen glands and they do not go away
  • When lymph nodes are present on a CT or MRI scan
  • For some patients with breast cancer or melanoma, to see if the cancer has spread (sentinel lymph node biopsy)
