FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How do needle and surgical biopsies differ?

Needle biopsy is less invasive and typically used for smaller samples. Surgical biopsy is for more profound tissue collection and may require anaesthesia for patient comfort.

Does a Biopsy Hurt?

While some discomfort is possible, local anaesthesia minimises pain. At Vitadell Healthcare, we prioritise patient comfort and offer pain management options.

How Long Does It Take to Get Results?

Biopsy results can vary depending on the complexity of the case. However, our medical team usually provides biopsy reports within 7-10 days.

Can a Biopsy Spread Cancer?

No. Biopsies are performed in a sterile environment and doctors take utmost precautions to prevent cancer cells from spreading during biopsy.

Can I resume normal activities after a biopsy?

Yes, you can resume normal activities on the same day. However, doctors usually recommend resting for 24-48 hours.
