Targeting the invisible: precision fiducial marker placement in poorly visible liver tumors prior to percutaneous ablation using real-time image fusion guidance

The present work suggests that pre-PTA placement of a fiducial marker in poorly visible tumors using real-time US-CT/MRI fusion imaging is accurate, potentially enhancing the effectiveness of subsequent PTA.
