    Computed tomography (CT) is valuable for planning percutaneous bone biopsies. This imaging technique definitively guides biopsy site selection and management decisions in most cases.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Surgical Planning

    Background:

    • Percutaneous bone biopsy is a common diagnostic procedure.
    • Effective prebiopsy planning is crucial for successful outcomes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the utility of computed tomography (CT) in the prebiopsy planning of percutaneous bone biopsies.

    Main Methods:

    • Computed tomography (CT) scans were performed before anticipated percutaneous bone biopsies in 19 patients.
    • CT results were categorized based on their usefulness in prebiopsy planning.

    Main Results:

    • CT was definitive in 11 cases, confirmatory in 4, and not useful in 4.
    • CT influenced biopsy site, needle type, or position in 7 of the 11 definitive cases.
    • CT indicated that no biopsy was needed in 4 cases.

    Conclusions:

    • Computed tomography (CT) is a useful tool for prebiopsy planning and management in percutaneous bone biopsies.
    • CT can significantly impact procedural decisions, including site selection and the determination of whether a biopsy is necessary.
