Combined use of OsiriX™ imaging software and ultrasound to guide surgery in a patient with a needle in the head
It is essential to use minimally invasive techniques in the surgical removal of the foreign object in asymptomatic patients. A 39-year old woman with an approximately 3 cm-long thin metallic object adjacent to the left frontal bone is reported. The patient's CT scans were evaluated using OsiriX...
