Are Liquid Biopsies Safe For Treating Growths Under The Eyes?
I am interested in knowing about liquid biopsies. A friend had a Mo s treatment a few years back for a growth under her eye. It seems that something may have come back. I do not know if liquid biopsies are in use or if this would be the safest way to go. Can you give me some info before I approach her and make a suggestion?

Hello,
A liquid biopsy is not a treatment procedure. It is used to make a diagnosis rather than treatment. It is a kind of minimally invasive procedure in place of the conventional biopsy procedure.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
