A biopsy is a technique where a piece of tissue is surgically removed for microscope examination. Besides confirming a cancer, the biopsy also provides information about the type of cancer, the stage it has reached, the aggressiveness of the cancer and the extent of its spread. Since a biopsy provides the most accurate analysis, it is considered the gold standard of diagnostic tests.
Your biopsy.me account is the center for communication with you. Through this account, you will receive progress notifications and your final biopsy review report.
You can apply for a second opinion from almost anywhere in the world. Due to local regulatory restrictions, there are a few countries where biopsy.me cannot provide its services (US, Canada, Belgium).
You can apply for a second opinion in your own name or on behalf of another patient, and more specifically in the capacity of a parent/guidian of a minor, a administrator of a person (defined by court order), a representative of a patient (as per written mandate) or any other representative of the patient if that patient is unable to exercise his/her rights and you have a statement confirming you are acting as the patient's representative.
The price of a biopsy review is 575 EUR. This includes the access of our platform, transport fees, sample reception, scanning, storage of the scanned images on the server and remuneration of the expert pathologist(s). It also includes all taxes (like VAT).
