There are several techniques for performing a liver biopsy:
1. Percutaneous Biopsy: This is the most common method where a needle is inserted through the abdomen into the liver. 2. Transjugular Biopsy: A catheter is inserted into a vein in the neck and guided to the liver, often used when there are blood clotting issues. 3. Laparoscopic Biopsy: A minimally invasive surgery using small incisions and a camera to guide the biopsy.
