With cutting-edge imaging and expert gastroenterologists, our approach ensures precision, safety, and clarity in your diagnosis—so you can move forward with confidence.
What is Pancreatic Biopsy?
A pancreatic biopsy involves extracting a small tissue sample from the pancreas to examine under a microscope. It’s often used to evaluate:
- Pancreatic tumors or masses
- Pancreatic cysts
- Chronic pancreatitis
- Suspected pancreatic cancer
- Pancreatic ductal carcinoma
- Unexplained biliary obstruction
At Curis Life, we perform:
- EUS-guided biopsy of the pancreas
- CT-guided pancreatic biopsy
- Fine-needle aspiration (FNA)
- Core needle biopsy of the pancreas
- Endoscopic pancreatic biopsy
Why is Pancreatic Biopsy Performed?
A biopsy helps confirm or rule out conditions such as:
- Pancreatic cancer diagnosis
- Pancreatic neoplasm
- Inflammatory pancreatic lesions
- Evaluation of a pancreatic cyst
- Workup for pancreatitis
This test is typically recommended when imaging shows a mass or irregularity in the pancreas, or when blood markers suggest malignancy.
Types of Pancreatic Biopsy Techniques
Depending on the size and location of the lesion, we may use:
- EUS-guided biopsy (Endoscopic Ultrasound): Minimally invasive, highly precise, often preferred for deep-seated masses.
- CT-guided biopsy: Useful for outer surface lesions, guided by cross-sectional imaging.
- Fine-needle aspiration (FNA): Extracts a sample of cells, ideal for cytological testing.
- Core needle biopsy: Retrieves a tissue core for detailed histological evaluation.
These option ensure high diagnostic yield with minimal discomfort.

At Curis Life, we go beyond routine testing. With a precision medicine approach, we combine tumor marker testing, imaging, and biopsy results to create individualized care plans. Whether you’re undergoing a pancreatitis workup or being screened for pancreatic ductal carcinoma, we tailor diagnosis and treatment based on your unique clinical picture.
