A CT-guided fine needle aspiration is a procedure where a doctor uses CT imaging to guide a thin needle to collect a small sample of tissue from a lesion or abnormal area in your body. This procedure might be recommended when your doctor needs to examine cells from a specific spot that's difficult to reach or when other imaging methods alone aren't enough to determine what's causing an abnormality. During the procedure, you'll lie still while the CT scanner helps the doctor position the needle precisely, and you may feel mild pressure or a brief pinch as the sample is collected.
