Overview

Image guided biopsies and thermal ablations use ultrasound CT or MRI guidance to obtain tissue or treat focal lesions with precision.

Technique

Needle trajectory planning real time imaging and post procedure monitoring ensure safety and diagnostic yield.

Clinical Uses

Liver lung and kidney biopsies tumor ablation for hepatic renal and pulmonary lesions.

Limitations and Safety

Bleeding infection and nondiagnostic samples are risks. Multidisciplinary planning optimizes outcomes.
