Adrenal gland biopsy
The adrenal glands are endocrine glands which are located immediately on top of the kidneys. During an adrenal biopsy, a small sample of tissue is removed and sent to the pathologist for testing. The biopsy can be performed using CT guidance when a suspicious mass or tumor is found on one or both of the adrenal glands.
