A biopsy for a mass on the bowel is typically performed during a colonoscopy, where a flexible tube with a camera is inserted through the rectum to visualize the colon. If a suspicious mass is identified, a small sample of tissue can be obtained using specialized tools attached to the colonoscope. The collected tissue is then sent to a laboratory for histological analysis to determine the nature of the mass. In some cases, if the mass is not accessible via colonoscopy, a surgical biopsy may be necessary.
There might be some kind of obstruction in the bowel that may prevent the biopsy. I can't think of any other reason why it would not be done if the doctor thought it necessary.
A biopsy is a diagnostic procedure in which tissue or cells are removed from a part of the body and.prepared for examination under a microscope. When the tissue involved is part of the small intestine, the procedure is called a small-intestine.biopsy.

Pap smear uses a small sample of cells gently collected from the cervix to look for cancer or precancerous problems on the cervix. A pap smear doesn't detect a mass. If a doctor finds a mass at the vulva or cervix at the time of your pelvic exam, a biopsy may be done. If the mass is internal, for example at the uterus or ovaries, it's not likely that you've have a biopsy that day.

aspiration biopsy (using a fine needle) and large-core needle biopsy. Either of these may be called a percutaneous needle biopsy. Percutaneous refers to a procedure done through the skin.
No. A lung needle biopsy is used to pull a sample of tissue from the lungs for testing. A lung needle biopsy should NOT be done with someone who has Emphysema.
