Lung Lesions Biopsy in Children by Computed Tomography (CT) Fluoroscopy Guided Versus Conventional CT Scan Guided
Abstract Background Computed tomography (CT)-guided biopsy of the lung is a well-established method of diagnosis. The aim of this study was to determine the success rate of fluoroscopic CT (FCT) and conventional CT (CCT) in needle navigation biopsies from the lung lesions. Materials and Methods A total of 78 patients were prospectively enrolled to receive CT-guided biopsy with (group I, n=2...
متن کاملSimplified CT-guided stereotaxic biopsy.
A stereotaxic frame worn during computed tomographic (CT) scanning of the head produces landmarks in each section that are used to relate section coordinates to frame coordinates. A small, commercially available, programmable calculator is used to interrelate frame and CT section geometry. The system can be used with any CT scanner that can specify (x,y) coordinates of a pixel, obviating the ne...
متن کاملCT-guided brachial plexus biopsy.
We describe a technique for conducting a CT-guided biopsy of the brachial plexus region, report two illustrative cases, discuss potential complications, and conclude that, in selected cases, biopsy of lesions in the region of the brachial plexus can be performed safely with CT guidance.
متن کاملA new method to measure electron density and effective atomic number using dual-energy CT images.
The purpose of this work is to present a new method to extract the electron density ([Formula: see text]) and the effective atomic number (Z eff) from dual-energy CT images, based on a Karhunen-Loeve expansion (KLE) of the atomic cross section per electron. This method was used to calibrate a Siemens Definition CT using the CIRS phantom. The predicted electron density and effective atomic numbe...
متن کاملCT Guided Bone Marrow Aspiration and Core Biopsy
Hemorrhagic complications related to bone marrow aspiration and trephine biopsy are uncommon. Risk factors include thrombocytopenia, myeloproliferative disorders, concurrent use of anticoagulants, and obesity. Here we describe our technique for bone marrow aspiration and biopsy of the posterior iliac crest using CT guidance. Our technique ensures needle passage only through subcutaneous fat and...
