Abstract

The accuracy of percutaneous needle aspiration and biopsies is related to localization of pathology and of the needle tip. Localization methods of percutaneous needle aspiration currently in use are fluoroscopy, ultrasound and angiography. The authors believe that localization by computed tomography is the most accurate method for performing biopsies. The authors have performed the biopsy of the paravertebral lesion under the CT-scan using EMI-5005 on Aug. 23, 1978, at the Department of Neurosurgery, Kyung Hee University Hospital.
