Study Summary

The objective of this research is to use the Clear Guide SCENERGY technology, an FDA approved Ultrasound-CT fusion imaging system, that allows the user to fuse CT images onto a real-time ultrasound that is being performed on the patient. This fusion system will be used to perform ultrasound guided needle placements for patients undergoing percutaneous CT guided needle-based intervention. This study will consist of 20 patients, 10 patients using the CGM SCENERGY US-CT system and 10 patients using guidance only. The primary goal of the study is to prove that the new imaging fusion system is comparable to using either CT or US guidance alone to guide needle placement.

Eligible Conditions
  • CT Biopsy
  • CT Guided Pelvic Injection
  • CT Guided Drain Placement
