Precision navigation systems are enhancing interventional oncology, improving thermal ablation accuracy for challenging lesions. These advanced tools standardize procedures and expand imaging feedback capabilities for operators.

Area of Science:

  • Interventional oncology
  • Medical imaging
  • Surgical navigation

Background:

  • Thermal ablation of difficult-to-image lesions previously relied heavily on operator skill.
  • Operator experience and spatial estimation were critical for targeting lesions, especially those visible on positron emission tomography or in arterial phase.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review current navigation systems and techniques in interventional oncology.
  • To discuss clinical applications of novel navigation technologies for thermal ablation.
  • To define how these technologies meet clinical needs and integrate into practice.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing navigation systems and associated software.
  • Discussion of specific clinical applications for thermal ablation procedures.
