“…This technique is sometimes used for guidance of punctures without tracking the puncture needle itself, but instead using conventional USguidance for needle insertion. Another possibility is to use this technology for non-invasive diagnosis, such as for breast cancer [126]. Some manufacturers offer such RVS systems that include EM tracking, see Sec.…”

“…Concerning virtual sonography (RVS), which is used for diagnosis and puncture guidance, a better detection rate for breast tumors was found compared to conventional US/MRI combined diagnosis [126]. In a study investigating the detection of the ablation area after RFA, contrast enhanced sonography seemed to be a good alternative to RVS [76].…”

Abstract-Object tracking is a key enabling technology in the context of computer-assisted medical interventions. Allowing the continuous localization of medical instruments and patient anatomy, it is a prerequisite for providing instrument guidance to subsurface anatomical structures. The only widely used technique that enables real-time tracking of small objects without lineof-sight restrictions is electromagnetic (EM) tracking. While EM tracking has been the subject of many research efforts, clinical applications have been slow to emerge. The aim of this review paper is therefore to provide insight into the future potential and limitations of EM tracking for medical use. We describe the basic working principles of EM tracking systems, list the main sources of error, and summarize the published studies on tracking accuracy, precision and robustness along with the corresponding validation protocols proposed. State-of-the-art approaches to error compensation are also reviewed in depth. Finally, an overview of the clinical applications addressed with EM tracking is given. Throughout the paper, we report not only on scientific progress, but also provide a review on commercial systems. Given the continuous debate on the applicability of EM tracking in medicine, this paper provides a timely overview of the state-of-the-art in the field.

Background: Transcranial color-coded sonography (TCCS) is a well established method to study intracranial parenchymal and vascular structures. It is, however, limited by the need to insonate through available bone windows, resulting in oblique imaging planes, which can hinder easy allocation, particularly within the brain parenchyma and limit the opportunity for direct comparison with other imaging techniques. The objective of this study was to analyze the diagnostic yield of the ultrasound fusion imaging (UFI) technique using standard diagnostic approaches.
