Abstract

Although surgical biopsy remains the gold standard for the diagnosis of lymphoma, small-volume biopsies including fine-needle aspiration and core needle biopsy are increasingly being used as a first line diagnostic tool. Small-volume biopsies are safe, rapid and cost effective; however, diagnostic utility varies by lymphoma subtype. It is important for pathologists and clinicians to recognize both the strengths and limitations of such biopsies.

小体积活检在淋巴瘤诊断中的用途和局限性。

尽管手术活检仍是诊断淋巴瘤的金标准，但包括细针穿刺和核心针活检在内的小量活检正越来越多地被用作一线诊断工具。小体积活检安全、快速、经济有效，但诊断效用因淋巴瘤亚型而异。病理学家和临床医生必须认识到这类活检的优势和局限性。

期刊介绍： The aim of Cytopathology is to publish articles relating to those aspects of cytology which will increase our knowledge and understanding of the aetiology, diagnosis and management of human disease. It contains original articles and critical reviews on all aspects of clinical cytology in its broadest sense, including: gynaecological and non-gynaecological cytology; fine needle aspiration and screening strategy. Cytopathology welcomes papers and articles on: ultrastructural, histochemical and immunocytochemical studies of the cell; quantitative cytology and DNA hybridization as applied to cytological material.
