  • Title: CT-guided needle localization for intraoperative biopsy of the head and neck.
    Author: Keidan RD, Solin LJ, Gatenby R, Weese JL.
    Journal: Laryngoscope; 1990 Jan; 100(1):97-8. PubMed ID: 2293708.
    Abstract:
    Needle-localized intraoperative biopsy was first described for the nonpalpable breast mass using mammography for needle placement. This technique can be adapted by substituting CT (or MRI) for mammography. It can be a valuable tool in localizing the nonpalpable areas of concern in the head and neck, especially when the location is obscure or the patient has undergone previous radiation and/or surgical therapy.
