"Brain Biopsy Revolution: Unveiling the Core Syringe Technique With Clinical Insights".

Background: Obtaining a definitive pathological diagnosis from brain tissue sampling was challenging due to the small, nonrepresentative sample. This study introduced a novel syringe technique for brain biopsy aimed at enhancing diagnostic accuracy by obtaining core tissue samples that better represent the targeted tissue.

Methods: The 10 patients with atypical brain lesions underwent the syringe biopsy.
