Abstract
Because of a trend of increased use of core needle biopsies (CNB) for the diagnosis of lymphoma, we aimed to assess the efficacy of CNB compared to surgical excisional biopsy. The 373 biopsy samples were assessed by specialized hematopathologists. CNB is in frequent use in lymphoma assessment, and it can provide enough sample material for adequate lymphoma diagnosis and classification.
