Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Interventional Radiology
  • Ultrasound Technology

Background:

  • Ultrasound (US) machine and transducer advancements enhance guidance for interventional procedures.
  • US provides excellent guidance without radiation and at a relatively low cost.
  • Underutilization of US stems from a lack of understanding and experience with the technique.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To illustrate the role of ultrasound in interventional radiology.
  • To provide a practical explanation of needle placement under US guidance.

Main Methods:

  • Review of ultrasound technology and its application in interventional radiology.
  • Step-by-step explanation of needle insertion techniques using ultrasound guidance.

Main Results:

  • Ultrasound is a valuable tool for guiding interventional procedures.
  • Clear understanding of US guidance improves procedural success rates.

Conclusions:

  • Ultrasound is an underutilized but effective modality in interventional radiology.
  • Education and experience are key to increasing the adoption of US guidance.
