Stereotactic MRI Based Image Guidance for the Treatment of Vascular Malformations - a Pilot Study

NCT02991352 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 10

Last updated 2017-12-15

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Treatment of vascular malformations requires the placement of a needle within anatomically non well defined, pathological vessels, which may be as small as 1 mm, with the current state of the art relying exclusively on two dimensional fluoroscopy images for guidance. The investigators hypothesize that the combination of stereotactic image guidance with existing targeting methods will result in faster and more reproducible needle placements.
