Computed tomography (CT)-guided interventions offer effective diagnosis and treatment for musculoskeletal diseases, achieving 90.5% accuracy. This minimally invasive approach is particularly beneficial for deep-seated bone and soft tissue conditions.

Area of Science:

  • Musculoskeletal Diseases
  • Interventional Radiology

Background:

  • Computed tomography (CT) is a valuable imaging modality for musculoskeletal conditions.
  • Minimally invasive CT-guided interventions can aid in both diagnosis and treatment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present the experience with CT-guided interventions for musculoskeletal diseases.
  • To describe the technical details, advantages, disadvantages, and accuracy of CT-guided procedures.

Main Methods:

  • 77 CT-guided interventions were performed on 72 patients between 2002 and 2005.
  • Patients presented with suspected fractures, tumors, or infections.
  • Procedures included diagnosis, treatment, and tissue sampling.

Main Results:

  • Interventions addressed tumors, metastases, bone cysts, infections, and bone alterations.
  • Effective accuracy of the procedures was 90.5%.
  • No intraoperative complications were observed, with two repeat interventions required due to insufficient samples or persistent osteoid osteoma.
  • Conclusions:

    • CT-guidance significantly supports diagnostic and therapeutic procedures for bone and soft tissues.
    • This method is especially advantageous for deep-seated lesions difficult to access via open surgery.
