It’s not quite general anesthesia, but you will not feel any pain or have any memory of it. It’s a deep twilight sedation.
I would think most likely, but it would be best to speak to your physician
who is doing the procedure.
who is doing the procedure.
Yes, preferably GENERAL
No, most liver biopsies are done with a local injection of anesthetic only, not general anesthesia
It's possible.
