A novel computed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous puncture device, not fixed to the patient, offers high accuracy. This versatile tool shows promise for various interventional procedures, including retrobulbar anesthesia and spinal interventions.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging and Interventional Radiology
  • Medical Device Engineering

Background:

  • Computed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous interventions are crucial for minimally invasive procedures.
  • Existing devices may have limitations in patient fixation and gantry angulation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a novel, non-affixed percutaneous puncture device for CT-guided interventions.
  • To assess the accuracy and applicability of the device in clinical settings.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a novel percutaneous puncture device designed for CT guidance.
  • Testing the device in initial patient examinations, including procedures with tilted gantry.
  • Evaluation of device accuracy against predetermined target points.

Main Results:

  • The developed device demonstrated high accuracy, with deviations within 1.0 mm of the target point.
  • The device proved usable even when the CT gantry was tilted.
  • Initial clinical experience included successful retrobulbar anesthesia and intervertebral disk space puncture.

Conclusions:

  • The novel CT-guided percutaneous puncture device is accurate and versatile.
  • Its non-affixed nature and gantry tilt compatibility enhance procedural flexibility.
  • The device shows potential for a range of image-guided interventions.
