EUS-guided liver biopsy: the optimal technique?
Liver biopsy remains the gold standard for diagnosis of parenchymal liver disease. For decades, percutaneous liver biopsy (PLB) has been performed at bedside, based on percussion of the right hepatic lobe. Considered the gold standard, PLB now frequently employs image guidance, most commonly utilizing pre-biopsy ultrasound marking or real-time guidance. Transjugular liver biopsy (TJLB), performed by interventional radiologists, is ideal for patients with ascites, coagulopathy or obesity. In almost all cases, TJLB also samples the right hepatic lobe via the right hepatic vein given the anatomic access advantage.
