2 Disclosure Ins:tu:onal support from GE healthcare research division No personal conflicts with this presenta:on
3 IntroducJon Percutaneous musculoskeletal biopsy Widely used method for musculoskeletal tumors Imaging needed for accurate needle guidance Ultrasound (US): blind to many lesions Computed Tomography (CT) Magne:c Resonance Imaging (MRI)
4 Drawbacks of CT and MRI Biopsies Difficulty in scheduling (scanners booked for diagnos:c imaging) Uncomfortable senng for pa:ents OOen lengthy process No real- :me feedback image adjustment and needle placement cannot be performed simultaneously
5 TradiJonal US guidance Pros Faster to schedule Obtained in an US suite (comfortable atmosphere) Real- :me feedback (biopsy tool directed under con:nuous imaging) No radia:on exposure Cons Low sensi:vity for the diagnosis of some lesions Low contrast resolu:on Intraosseous lesions invisible Operator dependent
6 US fusion technology Incorporates previously obtained CT or MRI scans into the US guided biopsy Computer sooware fuses CT or MR data with real :me US (naviga:on based on reference points) Can iden:fy areas on the US scan that correspond to specific cuts on CT or MRI No repeat scanning necessary
7 Equipment Dual Position sensing system Ultrasound probe
8 Equipment
9 Hypothesis and Endpoints Comparing US fusion (by CT or MRI) with CT guidance Diagnos:c yield; Accuracy Easier scheduling Faster procedure Improved pa:ent comfort
10 Methods 60 pa:ents recruited 47 pa:ents randomized and available at final follow- up Control group: CT guided biopsy Experimental group: US fusion guided biopsy U:lizing exis:ng CT or MRI scans
11 47 pa:ents available in follow- up US fusion N= 31 CT scan N= 16 Females = 13 Males = 18 Females = 8 Males = 8
12 Data CollecJon Demographic Clinical diagnosis Scheduling :me Procedure :me Pa:ent subjec:ve ques:onnaire including five ques:ons, each with five point ra:ng VAS pain score
13 Data CollecJon Physician collected data indica:ng poten:al complica:ons: Tenderness to palpa:on at the biopsy site Presence of erythema or celluli:s Hematoma (palpable or visible) Complica:on (including infec:on) requiring opera:on Adequacy of histologic specimen (Diagnos:c yield) Correla:on with surgical pathology (Diagnos:c accuracy)
14 PaJent subjecjve quesjonnaire The procedure was scheduled promptly The atmosphere in the treatment room was friendly and pleasant The procedure was performed quickly The procedure was painless If needed I would undergo the procedure again in the same manner Patient satisfaction questionnaire (1=Strongly agree; 2=Agree; 3= Neither agree or disagree; 4= Strongly disagree)

23 DiagnosJc Yield 29/31 pa:ents (94%) in the US fusion arm had a diagnos:c biopsy 15/16 pa:ents (94%) in the CT arm had a diagnos:c biopsy P=1.00
24 DiagnosJc Accuracy CT arm: 5/6 correlated with surgical pathology (83%) US fusion arm: 14/16 correla:on (88%) P=0.5
25 Temporal factors Time from request to biopsy (days) Biopsy time (minutes) fusion (average time, SD) CT (average time, SD) P value 3.0, , * 36, 17 53, * Timeframe needed to obtain an US fusion biopsy was significantly shorter than CT Actual biopsy :me was significantly shorter in the US fusion pa:ents
26 PaJent sajsfacjon measures fusion (median score) CT (median score) P value The procedure was scheduled promptly The atmosphere in the treatment room was friendly and pleasant The procedure was performed quickly ^ ^ * The procedure was painless If needed I would undergo the procedure again in the same manner ^ ^
27 CT guided biopsies (retrospecjve data) Hau: 359 pa:ents/ 1 year 71% overall accuracy (Skeletal Radiol (2002) 31: ) Altuntas: 127 pa:ents/ 4 years 80.3% overall accuracy (ANZ J. Surg. 2005; 75: ) Chojniak: 1300 pa:ents/ 6 years 70-92% FNA, % cunng needle biopsies showed adequate specimen (Sao Paulo Med J. 2006;124(1):10-4.) Puri: 128 pa:ents/ 3 years 94.5% diagnos:c, 95.4% accuracy (Skeletal Radiol (2006) 35: )
28 Strengths of the study First look at new technology Randomized (with a twist) Single ter:ary care facility Single group of radiologists with standardized biopsy techniques Availability of on- site musculoskeletal pathologist
29 Weaknesses Low sta:s:cal power Musculoskeletal tumors rela:vely less common than other malignancies Pa:ent anri:on rate and follow- up Some pa:ents randomized to CT were converted to US fusion at the discre:on of the radiologist Felt safer performing an US fusion procedure than CT guided Introduces study bias Decreases level of evidence
30 Conclusions Comparable diagnos:c yield and accuracy Good safety profile Poten:al advantages over CT/MRI real- :me feedback Easier scheduling? Higher pa:ent sa:sfac:on No addi:onal radia:on at biopsy Quickly adopted by radiologists
