Dynamic helical CT-guided needle localization of non-palpable and mammographically occult breast lesions. Case reports.
Dynamic helical CT-guided needle localization of non-palpable and mammographically occult breast lesions is described. Dynamic helical CT-technique enabled fast volume scanning of the whole breast during the early contrast enhancement phase, which provided sufficient contrast to localize the target lesions. The procedures were successfully completed without complications.
