Case StudiesSaphenectomy using CloseFAST and the Ultra-Pro II Needle Guide

Publication BriefsThe authors describe an outbreak of Burkholderia cepacian complex (BCC) in Neonatal Unit and Intensive Care Unit patients in Argentina, between April and July 2013. Charts were reviewed, and microbiological...

Publication BriefsIn this clinical investigation, the authors conduct a study to evaluate the accuracy and safety of electromagnetic needle tracking for use during ultrasound-guided percutaneous liver biopsy. Using a 16-gauge eTRAX^™...

Publication BriefsAn in vivo swine study was performed to assess the overall targeting accuracy of an ultrasound system with navigation technology, electromagnetic tracking and needle sensor technology embedded within the needle...

Publication BriefsAbscess drainage under ultrasound guidance has advantages over using other imaging modalities. Real-time visualization of the area of interest and drain placement can be accomplished within a department or portably...

Publication BriefsIn this article, the authors conducted a pre-clinical trial using a liver phantom with a corresponding CT dataset to evaluate the performance and time efficiency for performing liver interventions under...

Publication BriefsIn this phantom study, the authors evaluate accuracy and time required to perform a free-hand electromagnetic needle tracked biopsy using a traditional in-plane and out-of-plane approach compared to standard needle...

Publication BriefsThe authors compared percutaneous liver biopsy procedures performed using free-hand ultrasound-guidance to those performed using electromagnetic needle tracking (EMT). Thirty percutaneous liver biopsies were performed using conventional free-hand US guida

Publication BriefsOne of the largest single-center studies comparing the yield and complication rate of 2,138 kidney biopsies was performed by Nephrologists in a tertiary care teaching institute in India. The patient...

Publication BriefsIn this feasibility study, the authors evaluate the practicality of fusion imaging between real-time ultrasound (US) and positron emission tomography (PET) data sets for precise localization and treatment of recurrent...

Publication BriefsAn ultrasound comparison experiment between the freehand and probe-guide technique was performed using a custom gelatin and olive phantom to compare the time and quality of the biopsy sample. The...

Publication BriefsThe authors evaluated the feasibility of ultrasound-guided virtual needle tracking used to perform percutaneous radiofrequency ablations (RFA) in eight patients with heptatocellular carcinoma.

Educational ExhibitsCurrently, facet joint injections are usually performed using CT guidance or fluoroscopy. The use of a GPS enhanced fusion system allows to combine the precision and panoramic view of these...
