Problem
CT-guided needle interventions often rely on free-hand techniques, which can lead to inaccurate needle placement, prolonged procedure times, and increased radiation exposure due to the need for multiple control scans. Inaccurate placement can result in non-diagnostic biopsy samples, insufficient treatment, and a higher risk of complications.
Solution
The Cube Navigation System (CNS) offers a solution by combining intelligent planning software with a sterile, single-use navigation device to provide radiologists with precise and reliable guidance during CT-guided interventions. The system enhances accuracy, especially in complex double oblique access routes, leading to shorter procedures, reduced radiation exposure, and more successful treatments. The CNS is compatible with all CT modalities and integrates seamlessly into existing workflows without requiring setup or calibration time.
Target Audience
The primary users are radiologists and interventional specialists performing CT-guided needle biopsies, pain therapy injections, and interventional oncology procedures.
