Breast Cancer Diagnostic Procedures | FNAC, Tru-Cut & Excisional Biopsies Explained | Dr. Mathews Jose

In this educational video, Dr. Mathews Jose, Consultant Medical Oncologist at Providence Hospital, explains the essential diagnostic procedures used to evaluate suspicious lumps and lesions: FNAC, Tru-Cut biopsy, and Excisional biopsy. Understanding these tests can help you grasp how doctors diagnose various conditions, including cancer, with accuracy and minimal discomfort.

Dr. Mathews covers:
- FNAC (Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology): A simple, minimally invasive procedure using a thin needle to extract cells for examination. It is fast, cost-effective, and helps detect benign or malignant conditions early.
- Tru-Cut Biopsy: This procedure retrieves a core tissue sample using a special needle for deeper and more detailed analysis. It provides more information than FNAC and helps distinguish between benign and malignant lesions with high accuracy.
- Excisional Biopsy: Involves surgically removing an entire lump or suspicious tissue area for comprehensive examination. It’s often done when a larger sample is needed for definitive diagnosis and treatment planning.

These biopsy methods are vital tools in modern medicine, enabling early detection and precise diagnosis while minimizing patient discomfort. If you found this explanation helpful, please like, share, and comment to encourage more people to understand the importance of these diagnostic tests.
