ABSTRACT
Image-guided synovial biopsy is generally a safe, well-tolerated procedure, with a high diagnostic yield. Percutaneous biopsy is indicated for synovial tumours visible on imaging studies where a definitive diagnosis is not possible on imaging grounds alone and/or when a definite diagnosis is necessary prior to initiating long-term treatment. Synovial biopsy for suspected synovial tumour differs from the technique used for joint aspiration, where the most convenient path between the skin and joint is usually chosen and, also, to a lesser degree, to that used for non-tumoural synovial biopsy. During synovial biopsy for tumour, the needle path should be aligned so that it passes along the length of the synovial tumour, including for suspected malignant tumours, the planned resection plane whenever possible. This review outlines the approach to image-guided biopsy of joint synovial tumours.
