Ultrasound-guided needle biopsy for pelvic tumors

This research study is looking at a less invasive way to diagnose pelvic tumors in women. Instead of requiring surgery under general anesthesia, doctors use ultrasound imaging to guide a special needle that collects a small tissue sample from the tumor. The study will help determine whether this needle biopsy technique is reliable, safe, and effective at providing the information doctors need to choose the right treatment.

Many women with pelvic tumors currently need surgery to get a tissue diagnosis, which requires general anesthesia, a hospital stay, and carries risks of surgical complications. This study explores whether a needle biopsy guided by ultrasound can provide the same accurate diagnosis while being safer, faster, and less costly for patients.
