Localization and
Biopsy Process
• In case the marker-lesion axis should intersect with one of the three horizontal
struts of the slat lateral plate and thus prevent direct access to the lesion, or the
penetration should not be made in the direction of the thorax, the angulation angle
of the marker (and thus of the subsequent needle guidance) can be readjusted to
-30°, -15°, + 15°, +30°.Your toolbox will then give you the new distance between
marker and lesion with the new angle as described in the following:
• First, you must complete Steps 1 through 4 as described above (Steps 5 through
7 are not relevant in this case).
• Then you must mark the pivot point with a vertical line. This line is located 22
mm behind the tip of the pointer. (See Ill. 8).
