CT-US fusion imaging increases the feasibility of early ultrasound-guided percutaneous intervention of local drug therapy in pancreatic contusion and laceration.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Multimodal fusion imaging (MMFI) was usually used to assist percutaneous procedures for difficult lesions, with most applications occurring with hepatic and prostatic interventions. This paper aimed to evaluate the precision and effectiveness of computed tomography-ultrasound (CT-US) fusion imaging (CUFI)-assisted US-guided percutaneous intervention (UGPI) in early local drug therapy for pancreatic contusion and laceration (PCL).

Methods

A total of 12 pigs with PCL were randomly divided into a CUFI-assisted UGPI (MU) group (n=6) and a single UGPI (SU) group (n=6). The MU group underwent CUFI-assisted UGPI of locally applied medical protein glue (1 mL) injection while the SU group received the same therapy using two-dimensional UGPI. The duration and accuracy of ea
