Bienvenue aux CHU de Toulouse dans le club CT-Navigation!
Les hôpitaux Rangueil et Pierre Paul Riquet sont maintenant équipés du dernier système Imactis CT-Navigation™ pour optimiser leurs interventions percutanées sous CT et CBCT.
Merci aux Prof. Hervé Rousseau, Prof. Marie Faruch, Prof. Nicolas Sans et à Julien Fourcade pour leur support.
♦ Retrospective, comparative study involving 120 patients
♦ The system demonstrated a very high diagnostic success rate
♦ Radiation exposure & needle insertion time were significantly lower in the navigation group
♦ The use of CT-Navigation is efficient, reliable & safe for lung biopsy compared to conventional CT guidance

♦ Review of the system: description, intended use, procedure details, main benefits and clinical data
♦ CT-Navigation could be considered as a first option in the diagnosis and/or treatment of lesions in difficult locations, even if further studies are necessary

♦ Phantom study involving 2 operators (junior & senior) and 4 dose reduction protocols
♦ Dose protocol, operator experience, obliquity and target location had no impact on accuracy
♦ The image quality and operator confidence decreased with dose reduction

♦ Case review of seven patients: 4 biopsies (hepatic, pulmonary, retroperitoneal and osseous lesions) and 3 ablations (pulmonary, pancreatic and hepatic carcinomas)
♦ The system was easily operated, facilitated pre-procedure planing and displayed an accurate needle trajectory
♦ Benefits for ablations (higher accuracy, better targeting of small lesions) and biopsies (fewer CT controls) without significant post-procedure complications

♦ Prospective controlled multicenter study protocol (500 patients maximum)
♦ The aim is to assess the safety, efficacy and performance within the 2 patient groups

♦ Prospective controlled study involving 120 patients
♦ Accuracy improved by a factor of 2 (when using the navigation system)
♦ Fewer acquisition scans: 2 vs 3 (when using the navigation system)
