Number of needle passes. Boxplot showing distributions within each group of number of needle passes during ultrasound guided FNB. The median number of needle passes was statistically significantly higher in the Group C compared with the Group A (2.0 vs. 1.0, Mann–Whitney U between Groups C vs. A, p = 0.009). The Group B median was also higher than the group A median i.e. 1.5 but this was not significant.
