Shave biopsy. A scalpel or razor blade is used to shave off a thin layer of the lesion parallel to the skin.
The biopsy that uses a scalpel to make an incision and remove a wedge of a large lesion is called a wedge biopsy or an incisional biopsy. This technique allows for the examination of a representative portion of the lesion while preserving surrounding tissue. It is often used when the lesion is too large to be completely excised or when a diagnosis is needed before further treatment.
