Detecting, Diagnosing and Treating Cancer: To detect, diagnose, and treat internal cancer requires a team of healthcare providers led generally by three specialist physicians: oncologists, radiologists, and pathologists. Upon examining a patient, and assessing the indicators for the presence of the disease, the oncologist consults with the radiologist and the decision is made for the radiologist to perform an image-guided biopsy to obtain tissue samples. The needles used generally harvest less than 50 mg of tissue, so multiple passes of the needle through the tissue under investigation are needed.
