A method and an equipment are described to perform a low temperature biopsy. The advantages of this method are the immediate conservation and the excellent topical conjugation of tissue. Using the effect of adherence it is also possible to get a biopsy from tissues of a high rupture strength. We used this cryobiopsy method for histological diagnosis of colposcopically suspicious areas of the ectocervix uteri, where the representation of relations between epithelium and stroma is of practical importance.
