The time it takes to receive liver biopsy results can vary. It typically depends on the specific laboratory processing the biopsy samples and the complexity of the analysis required. However, in many cases, you can expect to receive the results within a week or two after the procedure. The best course of action is to consult with your healthcare provider who can provide you with more accurate information regarding the timeline for receiving your specific biopsy results.
Liver biopsies results usually takes from 12 to 24 hours even a week, depending on the findings an any additional tests that might be needed to be performed for the final diagnosis. Thank you.
Results of biopsy of soft tissues are usually available in 1-2 days. If special studies are or consultation is needed, it may take a week or so.
Depends on a lot of variables. Interpreted results can take from 3 to 7 days.
Hello,
You are asking how long until you will have the results of the liver biopsy. This depends on whether you are asking for the pathology report to be directly given to you or whether you will have an appointment with your physician to discuss these results. I recommend that you discuss the results with your physician and receive the information from that person. Pathology reports can be confusing and often require explanations and treatment recommendations that can only be given by the ordering physician. The results are usually available within a few days unless special stains are necessary to fully interpret the biopsy.
Good luck.

It will probably be a few days for the tissue to be processed, examined, perhaps shared with another colleague, perhaps examined with additional special stains, results communicated to your doctor, and then he needs time to sit down and make callbacks.
7-21 days.
