Endometrial biopsy is slightly less accurate in the perimenopausal population than the postmenopausal population in detecting endometrial hyperplasia and carcinoma, with detection rates of 91% in perimenopausal women compared with 99% in postmenopausal women. If a woman with a uterus takes estrogen alone, she should have a yearly endometrial biopsy because of the risk of serious hyperplasias--this is vital for good health. If the physician determines that an endometrial biopsy is required, the Goldstein SonoBiopsy Catheter also allows the physician to simply apply suction to the catheter to aspirate an appropriate tissue sample for evaluation. |
