Ultrasound-guided on-target therapies offer safe and effective interventions for various conditions, including effusions, cysts, abscesses, and tumors. This minimally invasive approach shows high success rates, improving patient outcomes and survival periods.

Area of Science:

  • Medical imaging
  • Interventional radiology
  • Minimally invasive procedures

Context:

  • Sonographically guided on-target therapeutic interventions represent an evolving field in medical practice.
  • Literature review and own results highlight the efficacy and safety of these techniques.
  • The study examines a range of applications from simple fluid drainage to complex tumor ablation.

Purpose:

  • To review and present the possibilities of sonographically guided on-target therapeutic interventions.
  • To evaluate the safety and success rates of ultrasound-guided procedures.
  • To discuss various applications including drainage, sclerosing, and tumor therapy.

Summary:

  • Puncture and drainage of pleural, pericardial, and ascites effusions achieve nearly 100% success with high safety.

  • Sclerosing cysts shows variable success (65-96%), with lower long-term efficacy for rapidly recurring types.
  • Ultrasound-guided abscess drainage (80-95%) and cholecystotomy (63-94%) demonstrate significant benefits, despite potential complications.
  • Local tumor therapy, particularly for hepatocellular carcinoma, using alcohol injection improves survival.

    • Impact:

    • Provides a comprehensive overview of ultrasound-guided interventions, aiding clinical decision-making.
    • Demonstrates the high efficacy and safety of minimally invasive procedures, potentially reducing patient morbidity.
    • Highlights the role of ultrasound guidance in improving therapeutic outcomes and patient survival, especially in oncology.
