I was diagnosed with stage 4 PDAC in May 2023. They would not do a biopsy of the pancreas for risk of spreading it further. Given my liver had numerous tumours they biopsied my liver which they considered less risky and easier to access. Not the most pleasant experience! My procedure used a needle with ultrasound guidance… not sure of the official name for this… may be quite different then what is being proposed for you.

What did they do about the pancreas since there wasn't a biopsy done? How did the liver biopsy go? Was there anything to worry about? Hope you are doing good.
