Real Time 3D (4D) Ultrasound-Guided Percutaneous Biopsy of Solid Tumours

Abstract

4D ultrasound-guided biopsy is feasible and can improve visualisation of biopsy procedures by multiplanar display or 3D rendering. Although the accuracy is comparable to that of conventional 2D biopsy, this technique may be helpful for biopsy of lesions with close relation to relevant anatomical structures.
