Abstract

Advances in imaging modalities for detecting lymphadenopathy, the ease, safety, and accuracy of the tools and techniques, and the addition of refined ancillary studies for cytologic analysis will continue to increase the acceptance and use of percutaneous lymph node biopsy (PLNB) by fine-needle aspiration (FNA), especially in lymphomas.
