Abstract
This article presents an overview of image-guided interventions using conventionally available imaging modalities. It discusses technical and clinical aspects of the interventions, and also focuses on site-specific biopsies such as liver, spleen, renal, and soft tissue biopsies in the abdomen. It briefly discusses the emerging role of PET imaging and other technologies that will improve the diagnostic yield of image-guided biopsies.
