The previously demonstrated lesion is characterised on ultrasound as a well defined hypoechoic nodule, measuring 7.9 mm in diameter, and showing prominent internal vascularity. Procedure: With the patient in supine position, the target nodule was identified by ultrasound. The skin was prepped and draped in usual sterile fashion. Local anaesthesia was performed using 1% lignocaine. Under ultrasound guidance the core-biopsy procedure using a co-axial 14/13G true- cut needle was performed, and three fragments were obtained.
