Embodiments of the invention include a method of obtaining tissue from a body portion. The method includes providing a wire matrix with a covering in a collapsed configuration, advancing the wire matrix through a body lumen to the body portion, expanding the wire matrix, passing at least a portion of the covering against the body portion so as to deposit tissue on the covering, and removing the wire matrix and the covering via the body lumen.
