A regular biopsy is where the physician uses a metal device to invade the patient's body or tissues until the tip of the device reaches a certain location inside the body. The tip of the biopsy device is mechanically capable of snipping or clipping a sample of flesh [in the area] of concern. In the usual case, the physician will have reviewed the results of a non-invasive diagnostic test, such as an X-ray or a CT scan and the doctor will have seen something on the radiology results which has [stimulated] a [professional] need in the doctor's mind to know exactly what type of tissue exists in the area of concern. A biopsy therefore is the use of the metal device to pinch off or [otherwise] obtain a piece of the tissue from inside the body and to remove the tissue so that it can be analyzed at a pathology lab to assist the doctor in making an accurate diagnosis.
A wallet biopsy involves an inquiry similar to that of the regular biopsy noted above except that [in the wallet] biopsy the goal is to determine the ability of the patient to pay for the medical care which the doctor might recommend.The results of the wallet biopsy will reveal the nature and extent of the patient's health insurance coverage and/or the extent of the patient's personal wealth so that the doctor will know whether or not the patient can afford to pay the freight for the procedure.
