Abstract

For fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy to become established as a first-line procedure, it has to be perceived by the oncology community as yielding accurate and diagnostically useful information on which to base therapy. The articles submitted for this State of the Art Symposium regarding the diagnosis of lymphoma by FNA describe a minimalist but powerful approach, requiring the synthesis of morphology, phenotyping, and cytogenetic information on a small quantity of tissue.
