The usefulness of three-dimensional ultrasound fusion imaging for precise needle placement in liver thermal ablation: a phantom and an in vivo simulation study
Purpose To investigate the value of three-dimensional ultrasound fusion imaging (3DUS-FI) in real-time guiding needle placement by phantom models and in vivo simulations.Materials and methods Two radiologists (beginner and expert) performed needle placement using two-dimensional ultrasound (2DUS) an...
