There are several different types of biopsy methods, including excisional biopsy, incisional biopsy, needle biopsy, and endoscopic biopsy. Excisional biopsy involves removing the entire suspicious area, while incisional biopsy involves removing only a portion of the area. Needle biopsy uses a thin needle to extract tissue samples, and endoscopic biopsy uses a flexible tube with a camera to collect samples from inside the body. Each method has its own indications and advantages depending on the location and size of the suspicious tissue.
