INTERNAL BIOPSY MARKING

摘要

A system and method for marking a tissue site are described. A marker is deployed into or near the tissue site, where the marker can be later located using an imaging device external to the patient's body. After withdrawing the internal imaging device, the location of the marker can be identified using an external imaging device. Optionally, a biopsy of the internal tissue site can be performed based on the location of the marker.
