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 کاملCT-guided laser probe for ablation of brain tumors
In this study, 22 patients (15-75 years old) were selected and transferred to CT scan for tumor ablation. For ablations, after prep and drep under the local anesthesia and mild sedation in proper position, small incision made and special needle inserted and guided by proper direction to the core of the tumor. Then, laser probe inserted through the needle and laser energy delivered. Although we ...
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 کاملCT-guided biopsy for musculoskeletal lesions.
The study of musculoskeletal tumors greatly improved with the use of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). These studies offer excellent imaging of a lesion’s anatomical extension and a clear identification of its active part after contrast administration. However, modern imaging is essentially morphologic; its low specificity only allows for etiological diagnosis in a ...
