A CT biopsy is generally considered to be minimally painful, with most patients experiencing only mild discomfort during the procedure. Local anesthesia is typically used to numb the area, which helps reduce pain. Some patients may feel pressure or a brief sharp sensation when the biopsy needle is inserted. Overall, the pain level varies from person to person, but many report it as manageable.
