Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Interventional Radiology
  • Medical Device Technology

Background:

  • Computed tomography (CT) guided interventions are standard practice.
  • Electromagnetic navigation offers potential advancements in percutaneous procedures.
  • Evaluating novel navigation systems is crucial for improving patient care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the efficacy and safety of CT-based electromagnetically tip-tracked (EMT) interventions across diverse clinical applications.
  • To analyze procedure times, spatial accuracy, and radiation dose of EMT interventions.
  • To identify factors influencing the completion of EMT procedures.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized an EMT system for percutaneous interventions guided by CT datasets.
  • Analyzed procedure logging data and CT control scans for spatial accuracy and time metrics.
  • Estimated radiation doses and compared them to standard CT-guided interventions.
  • Investigated reasons for non-completion of planned interventions.

Main Results:

  • Successfully completed 23 out of 25 planned EMT procedures.
  • Average procedure time was 23.7 ± 17.2 minutes, with interventional time of 2.7 ± 2.4 minutes.
  • Achieved spatial accuracy of 3.1 ± 2.1 mm.
  • EMT interventions showed significantly lower radiation doses (732 ± 481 mGy x cm) compared to standard CT-guided interventions (1343 ± 1054 mGy x cm).
  • Procedure completion was affected by patient movement and reference fixation issues.

Conclusions:

  • Electromagnetic navigation provides accurate guidance for percutaneous interventions in various indications.
  • The accuracy and time efficiency of the EMT system support its routine clinical adoption.
  • EMT-based punctures offer a significant potential for reducing patient radiation exposure.
