What is a Liver Biopsy?

A liver biopsy is a simple medical procedure where a small sample of liver tissue is taken and examined under a microscope. This test helps doctors diagnose liver problems, understand the severity of liver disease, or check how well a treatment is working. It’s commonly used for conditions like hepatitis, fatty liver disease, or cirrhosis. The procedure is safe, usually done with local anesthesia, and provides essential information for accurate diagnosis and care. If you're experiencing liver issues, a liver biopsy can offer vital insights to guide your treatment plan.

Type Of Liver Biopsy

A liver biopsy can be done in different ways, depending on your health and the doctor’s recommendation. Here are the main types

  • Percutaneous Liver Biopsy: The most common type, where a needle is inserted through the skin to take a small liver tissue sample. It's quick and usually done under local anesthesia.
  • Transjugular Liver Biopsy: This method is used if you have bleeding issues. A thin tube is inserted through a vein in your neck to reach the liver and collect a sample safely.
  • Laparoscopic Liver Biopsy: A small camera (laparoscope) is inserted through a tiny cut in your abdomen to guide the doctor in taking a more precise liver sample. It’s useful when specific areas need to be checked.
